  • Seen only by youCaptures are private to your account and delete themselves after a short window.
  • Honest by designYour child knows FlashDroid is there, so a snapshot is a check-in, not a trap.
  • Less back-and-forthSometimes one picture answers the question a dozen texts couldn’t.

Questions

Snapshot — the questions parents ask

Does my child know FlashDroid is there?+

Yes. FlashDroid is visible on their phone under its own name and consent is recorded at pairing — it isn’t a hidden or secret tool.

Where do the photos and screenshots go?+

They’re private to your account and kept for a short window, then deleted automatically.
