NETGEAR Smart Parental Controls (SPC) is NETGEAR's current parental controls solution, offering a number of ways to manage your children’s online activity and promote good online habits for the family. SPC Premium also provides access to the My Time app, which lets you manage your children's mobile devices, see how they spend time online, and keep your established Internet rules active even while they’re away from home. For more information, see the Smart Parental Controls product page.

Circle is a parental control technology that helps you monitor your children’s devices while they are connected to your home network. While you can buy Circle devices separately, certain older NETGEAR routers have Circle technology already built in. For more information, see the Circle on NETGEAR product page.

Most newer NETGEAR devices only support SPC, while some older NETGEAR devices only support Circle.
