A Disney Means to Secure Family Internet

E-mail Print PDF

Customers worried about the contents kids can access online? Circle Media offers a solution-- the Circle With Disney, a small cube providing parents with home network control.

CircleFirst introduced through a failed 2013 Kickstarter, the Circle device wirelessly pairs with home routers. A companion iOS app allows parents to filter web content, set "bedtimes," block adds, view usage history and even simply block the internet entirely for specific devices. Four age-appropriate filters make such controls as easy as possible.

A partnership with Disney provides a "curated selection of Disney content" through a MyCircle app.

Even the hardware is designed with clever kids in mind-- a built-in battery powers 2 days of unplugged us, while the "on" switch is not actually an "off" switch.

The Circle is available now.
