Just downloaded these and they look great. I can see activity on Facebook (he's not on there yet), SMS messaging, block any sites, etc.

Yes as far as I can tell. They show images of laptop and what looks to be a phone shape. It can also be on android as well as Windows. I presume anything you can get internet on? I'll check today.

They probably are. I just meant that android is usually on phones rather than laptops.

I thought android and windows are the same? Android and Windows are both "operating systems". You have a device like a phone, PC, or whatever. That has "hardware" - the physical components. There's also "software". Programs, games, etc. The operating system sits in the middle and controls how the software and hardware communicate. Android and Windows both do that, but in very different ways, so most programs and apps need to be specially written (or have special parts of the programs) so that they can run under that operating system. That's particularly true of something like an anti-virus program because that has to deal with the deep-down fundamentals of how the operating system communicates with the Internet.

Apparently Android (the software on a lot of non-Apple phones) has changed its software and you can no longer block SMS texts, only receive notifications of content/numbers you have on a blacklist. Would be good to know if Bitdefender is able to block SMS as we just got notified of this from Vionika (Parental Board) :-( .
