How Helmit works, from setup to the first alert
Add your child, connect their apps, and Helmit takes it from there. The whole setup happens on your phone and takes a few minutes.
Add a profile for every child
One card per child. Everything Helmit does afterwards follows what you set here.
Your whole family on one screen
Each card shows the child and which platforms are protected, so you see the gaps at a glance.
Their age sets the baseline
What counts as risky for a 10 year old is not what counts as risky for a 15 year old.
Adjust it whenever you want
Sensitivity, connected accounts and privacy settings, all editable per child.
Connect their apps and their phone
Everything is linked from one screen in the parent app.
WhatsApp in about a minute
Open WhatsApp on your child's phone, go to Linked Devices and scan the QR code. The iOS and Android steps are in the app.
All their main apps
WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram, Discord, Signal, YouTube, Gmail and Outlook, with more on the way.
The phone covers the rest
Install Helmit on their device for screen time limits, app and web filters, and live location.
Helmit protects in the background, you hear only what matters
New messages are checked every few minutes. Most days you hear nothing at all.
A push the moment something is found
It names the child, the platform and the risk level before you open the app.
Every alert explains itself
The reason in plain language, and the exact messages that triggered it, in context.
Catches what a word filter misses
Grooming, bullying, hate speech, self harm, sextortion, drugs and scams, recognised from context and tone.
Step in without taking the phone away
Set limits, block what does not belong on their phone, and check they got there safely, all from the same app.
Screen time per day and per app
A daily budget for the phone, plus separate limits for the apps that eat most of it.
App and web filters
Block individual apps, whole categories of websites, and keep search results clean.
Routines that run themselves
Bedtime and homework windows switch on at the times you set.
Know they got there safely
Every child on one map, with a notification when they reach school or leave again.
Protection that respects your child's privacy
An alert, not a transcript
You see the messages that triggered a warning. The rest of their chat history stays theirs.
German company, EU servers
Every connection is TLS-encrypted and everything we store sits on servers in the EU.
You set the boundaries
Exclude individual chats from the analysis, or narrow it down to group chats only.
