iWonder Surf enables parental controlled browsing on iPhone, iPod touch

Parental control has spread its claws e-verywhere and it is no surprise that the iPhone too, hasn’t been spared. An application called the iWonder Surf can now be installed on your iPhone and iPod touch to monitor and control your child’s surfing activities.

This software, based on the Safari web browser, gives you the complete details about your child’s web visits – the date/time, the specific websites that were visited and even what they were looking at on a particular website. Once you track what your child’s surfing, you can decide on how to filter sites, to allow all traffic or to totally block the device from any location – even without having physical access to the device itself. How is that possible? Every installation of the software is assigned a unique email and password combination which can be used to login to the iWonder Surf website to remotely manage all the devices associated with your account. Simple enough. Though parenting to perfection always gets that much more complicated, in my personal opinion.

iWonder Surf is available at $15 from the App Store.
