| description | In today's digital age, the internet plays an important role in communication, education, and entertainment, but it also brings significant challenges. However, the increasing use of Internet, especially during the Movement Control Order
(MCO) period, has increase the reliance on Internet with raising the concerns of parents about their children's internet usage. The parents are worried about their
children's online safety such as exposure to inappropriate content, cyber bullying and spend too much time on screen. Therefore, this project addresses these problems by developing an Android-based mobile application with a
remote parental control system, which enables parents to remotely monitor and manage their children’s internet usage, creating a safe and rich online environment for their children. The application includes features like screen
time management, content filtering, location tracking, an SOS function for emergency and rewards claiming. Developed using the Flutter framework with Dart programming language for the front-end to implement the user interface
and Firebase for the back end, which is used for clouding, managing and storing the data. This project followed a phased Rapid Application Development (RAD) approach to ensure the efficient and user-centered development. Through a User Acceptance Test (UAT), the system was evaluated for usability and effectiveness which indicated that the application effectively meets parents' needs for monitoring and controlling their children's online activities. Most
respondents reported satisfaction with the application's user-friendly interface and features, although some suggested future improvements can focus on enhancing the beauty of the interface and simplifying the functions. Overall, the project has successfully provided a reliable solution for solving parents' concerns about children's online safety and promoting children's responsible use
of the Internet.
