From TikTok to homework: Keeping kids safe online (without being a buzzkill) 

Let’s face it – kids are curious. And with the whole wide web just a tap away, sometimes their curiosity takes them places you’d rather they didn’t end up (like accidentally ordering 47 cans of dog food from your saved Amazon login).  

We get it. That’s why our App has parental controls that help you stay in charge of the internet – without having to stand over their shoulder 24/7. Whether you’ve got mini gamers, young learners, social scrollers or tiny TikTokers under your roof, Lit Fibre helps you keep them safe, focused, and connected.  

Set limits without being the bad guy 

Want to stop late-night scrolling or YouTube rabbit holes before they start? Create custom profiles, set screen time limits, and schedule wind-down time – so you’re the boss without needing to nag.  

Help them find a healthy balance 

Create profiles for each family member and set gentle time limits or schedules that work for your routine – whether that’s homework time, bedtime, or just a screen break for some fresh air.  

Pause for real-life moments 

Dinner’s ready? Need a quick reset? Tap “pause” on the app and take a short break from the scroll. It’s perfect for family time, board games, or just a chance to chat without a screen in sight. 

Let Lit Secure Plus do the heavy lifting 

Behind the scenes, our smart security is keeping all your connected devices safe from dodgy websites, viruses and malware – so everyone can browse, stream and play with confidence.  

Internet that puts your family first 

At Lit we support the way modern families really live – with fast, reliable WiFi for every room, plus thoughtful App features that help everyone stay safe, focused, and connected in a way that works for you.
