LockIt Launcher

This launcher locks down your child's device to only the apps you approve.
In addition, on phones, you can create quick dial shortcuts for approved phone numbers, to ensure that no calls are initiated, that you don't approve of.
This is perfect for devices that are for the child only.
For toddlers, you don't have to worry about accidental changes to settings, accidental dialing of numbers, getting into the play store, and content protection. For pre-teens and teens, you don't have to worry about content protection and unapproved phone calls and texting.
This app is also perfect for seniors that are not technology savvy.
Locking down the phone and creating quick dial shortcuts to important contacts (emergency, children/grandchildren) eliminates the frustration (on both sides) of technology.
This is version one of the app, so more features are planned, such as changing the background, customizable profiles, a safe texting app, a safe gallery app, and a remote call and text log monitoring, to name a few.
This app replaces the launcher on your phone.
If you plan on sharing the device with your child, you will have to change the default launcher before you hand the device over, and change it back when you take it.
