How to find alerts using filters

You can use the sorting filters at the top of your Alerts page to sort alerts by different categories — including by child, platform, reviewed, unreviewed, and more.

  1. Open up your parent app / dashboard.
  2. Tap 🔔 Alerts.
  3. At the top are your alert sorting filters where you can sort by child, device, or even the date!

Needs review vs. reviewed 

The two most useful filters for alerts are Needs Review and Reviewed — in other words, whether you’ve read them or not.

When someone views a specific alert, it is marked as "read" and will show up under the Read/Reviewed view.

Pro Tip: If a co-parent is also receiving alerts, they may review an issue before you do. Double-check the Reviewed issues from time to time to make sure you don't miss any alerts.

By concern / type

Sort alerts by type of issue — violence, cyberbullying, sexual content, etc.

By source or app / account / device

Sort by issues found on different platforms — Android, X/Twitter, etc.

By severity / severe

Sort by how dangerous alerts are — severe and not severe.

Saved

Think of this like a "bookmark" function. If you clicked bookmark-solid.svg Save for later on an alert, this is where you'll find it.
