About
Circle is devoted to helping families thrive with technology and with each other. Circle envisions a world where families find balance, set healthy limits, build good habits, and get the best out of their digital experiences, rather than being consumed by them. Its screen time management and parental control solutions are the easiest and most comprehensive way to manage all your family’s connected devices—everywhere. Circle also collaborates with strategic partners to bring our service to more families. Its features, including content filters, time limits, and the ability to Pause the Internet®, set device Bedtimes and block specific apps, have already served as helpful tools for parents during shelter-in-place. By managing all Wi-Fi devices inside and mobile devices outside the home on any network, Circle is able to offer a comprehensive solution to common screen time woes. Customers can purchase the Circle App from the app stores or bundled with the Circle Home Plus in-home device. Circle features are also available through Circle on Netgear. The Circle website includes resources for parents and caregivers including advice from experts, a space to learn from other parents’ experiences, and a blog with timely tips about topics like screen time during social distancing.
