Paxio vs Kids360: which one fits your family?

Last updated September 2026

Kids360 is one of the more popular parental control apps on Play Store — 10M+ installs, cross-platform, and a distinctive angle: kids earn extra screen time by completing tasks (homework, chores, exercise) rather than it just accruing automatically. It also tracks location, which Paxio deliberately doesn't. Paxio is narrower by design: Android-only, one app instead of two, no location tracking, and a published price instead of an in-app paywall. Here's the honest Paxio vs Kids360 breakdown.

Quick answer

Pick Paxio if: you're Android-only, want one app instead of a parent-app-plus-child-app setup, don't want location tracking as part of the deal, and prefer a published price over an in-app paywall.

Pick Kids360 if: your family is mixed iOS/Android, you want location tracking and history, or the task-based "earn your screen time" model — chores, exercise, homework — fits how you want to motivate your kid better than an automatic streak bonus.

Where Kids360 wins

  • Cross-platform. Works across Android and iOS — Paxio is Android-only, full stop.
  • Location tracking. Live location and location history are built in, if that's something you want alongside device controls.
  • The task-based earn model. Instead of an automatic streak bonus, kids complete chores, homework, or exercise to earn extra time — a more hands-on incentive structure some families prefer.
  • Track record. 10M+ installs on Android alone and years in the category, with the reporting and polish that comes with scale.

Where Paxio wins

  • One app, not two. Kids360 requires installing Kids360 on the parent's phone and a separate app, Alli360, on the child's — Paxio is a single app that adapts to whichever role a device is set up for.
  • Privacy scope. No location tracking — if that's something you'd rather not have on your kid's phone at all, Paxio doesn't collect it, not as a togglable extra.
  • On-device content filtering. DNS-level filtering happens on the device itself — general browsing never leaves it, only the fact that something was blocked, and its category. Kids360 doesn't publish how its filtering works.
  • A published price. ₹499/mo or ₹4,999/yr, visible on the website before you install anything — not an in-app paywall with plan pricing you only see after downloading.
  • Genuinely free tier. Real, usable controls for one child with no card required, not a download-then-pay model.
  • Weekly report by email, not just numbers inside the app.

Common questions

Is Paxio a good Kids360 alternative? If your needs stop at screen time, app blocking, content filtering, and bedtime scheduling on Android, yes — with a published price and one app instead of two. If you need iOS, location tracking, or the task-based earn model, Paxio isn't a full replacement.

Does Kids360 track location? Yes, it's a core, advertised feature. Paxio doesn't, on any tier, by design.

Does Kids360 work on iOS? Yes, both Android and iOS. Paxio is Android-only.

Paxio is free to try for one child — screen time, app blocking, and content filtering, running entirely on the device.
