What does "Limited Apps" mean?
We include just the dialer, the messaging app, the Holler'd Safe Browser, Spotify, Zoom, calendar, camera, photos, calculator,
music player, clock, contacts, and voice recorder. Also, there is no Play Store to download new apps.
What about data and wifi?
You can connect to Wifi to let your kids use the Holler'd Safe Internet browser. We are working on adding new data plans to Holler'd.
With Holler'd, your kids can only go to sites you have actually allowed.
Are y'all local to the Austin area?
Most of us are. Others are in San Antonio TX / Nashville TN / Peoria IL.
Our kid broke thru parent controls before. How is this different?
You might have used a Parental Control app. We took the Android operating system and
changed the internals to create our controls and add security. It is impossible to break OS level controls.
Is GPS available?
It sure is! Currently, you can see where your child is. Soon, our GPS will also include a 24 hour location history
so you can see where they have been in addition to where they are now.
What does the Unlimited Plan include and what the other plans do you have?
The Holler'd Unlimited Plan includes unlimited calls and texts, an no data with Wifi-only browsing.
Soon we will add another plan that has unlimited calls + texts, and data for use with the Holler'd Safe browser.
We haven't set a price for that yet.
Is coverage the same as my current T-Mobile phones?
Yes, it is identical to what t-mobile publishes. We use their network.
So the phone is a pseudo-smart phone?
It is actually a full smartphone! We have modified the operating system to make it safe for kids but it is
capable of running Android apps. In the future we plan to make our own safe Play Store with a curated set of apps,
and you will be able to safe list, enable, or disable apps as well.
Is this offered nationally? I could tell my friends & family in Missouri, Alaska, California?
It is available everywhere except for Alaska. Please let your friends know about Holler'd!
