To add a device to your Circle system, you need to install the Circle Parental Controls app on the device you want to manage and set it up as a kid's device. This ensures the device is managed both at home and on other networks.
Here's a breakdown of the steps:
-
Download the Circle Parental Controls App: On the Android or iOS device you want to manage (typically your child's device), go to the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store, respectively, and download the Circle Parental Controls app.
-
Install and Set Up the Kid App Version: Launch the Circle Parental Controls app on the device. The app will guide you through the setup process. Make sure to select the option to configure it as a "kid" device or a device to be managed. The exact wording might vary slightly depending on your version of the app.
-
Assign the Device to a Profile: Once the kid app is set up, log in to your Circle account (usually on a parent's device). You should then see the newly added device within your Circle account. Assign this device to the appropriate profile you've created for your child. This will apply the correct filters and time limits.
By following these steps, you'll add a device to Circle, allowing you to manage its internet usage and ensure it's under the correct profile settings.
