Opt-in for notifications on your mobile device

Push notifications are alerts and information that you receive on your mobile device when your child disobeys the house rules. So, you can act quickly on the child's activity and keep them safe.
You need to install the Norton Family app for parents to get the push notifications. Use the information below to opt-in or opt-out of push notifications, and also choose the type of notifications that you want to receive.
