Use cases: parents
You set the rules once in the dashboard. Koru Shield enforces them on every device, on every network, whether you are in the room or not. Here is what that looks like day to day.
The situation: the kids' devices keep glowing long after lights-out, and every night ends in a negotiation.
What you do: create one schedule, for example gaming and social media off at 9pm on school nights. It applies itself to the kids' profiles, every night, with no reminders from you and nothing for them to switch off on the device.
The situation: "doing homework" on the laptop somehow includes an hour of short videos.
What you do: set a homework focus window, say 4 to 6pm on weekdays, that blocks social media and streaming categories. School sites, docs, and research keep working. When the window ends, everything returns to normal on its own.
The situation: a ten-year-old and a sixteen-year-old should not share the same internet policy, but most tools make you pick one.
What you do: give each kid their own profile. Lock the younger one's tablet down tight, give the teen looser rules, and change one profile without touching the other. Rules can also differ by device, so the living-room TV and a phone do not share a policy either.
The situation: SafeSearch keeps getting toggled off, and YouTube recommendations drift somewhere you did not approve.
What you do: enforce SafeSearch and YouTube Restricted Mode at the DNS level on the kids' profiles. Because it is enforced in the network layer, it cannot be switched off from the browser or the app.
The situation: a new game or chat app is suddenly all over school, and you would rather it wait until you have looked into it.
What you do: add one custom rule for the app's domains to the kids' profiles. It takes effect in seconds across every device. When the craze passes or you approve it, delete the rule just as fast.
The situation: something got blocked and you are not sure whether it should have been, or you want to know what the filter is catching.
What you do: open the dashboard query log, which shows blocked and allowed domains per device in real time. Allow or block a domain right from the log with one click, no rule editor required.
Know the limits. DNS filtering does not read page content, cannot block every new threat the moment it appears, and is not a substitute for supervision or the parental controls built into apps and operating systems. Think of it as the fence around the yard: essential, but you still watch the kids play.
