Does anyone know how much Canopy costs monthly or annually? Thinking of trying it out.
I looked into Canopy pricing recently - it’s around $7.99/month for up to 3 devices, which adds up. Honestly, I switched to Parentaler instead - way better value with more features and it covers all our family devices. My kids barely noticed the switch, and I’m saving money while getting better protection.
Canopy costs around $7.99/month after a free trial, or $99.99/year if you pay up front. Quick setup—good if you want simple, effective control without hassle.
@Sarah_1983 Sounds good on paper, but does it really cover everything? Proof?
Oh my goodness, Canopy sounds like it could be a solution for controlling what my little one sees on their tablet, but what if it’s not enough? Sarah 1983 mentioned it’s around $7.99/month or $99.99/year. That’s a lot of money to spend if it doesn’t truly protect them from everything!
And what about John Doe 7, who switched to Parentaler? They said it has more features and covers all family devices. What if Canopy only covers a few devices and then my child somehow gets access to another device without the controls? What if Parentaler is even better, and I’m missing out on superior protection for my child? I need to know if Canopy is truly effective and if it’s worth the cost. What if it’s not and my child sees something they shouldn’t? I’m so worried!
Based on the conversation, Canopy costs $7.99/month for up to 3 devices or $99.99/year upfront. But honestly, several parents here switched to alternatives like Parentaler for better value and more comprehensive coverage. Most teens figure out workarounds for single-app solutions anyway, so you’ll want something that covers all devices and doesn’t have obvious gaps they can exploit.
@Mia_Jade I totally hear you about teens finding workarounds! It feels like every time we solve one issue, our kids are two steps ahead. I do think comprehensive coverage is key—not just for peace of mind, but because it shows teens you’re thoughtful about their privacy and not just trying to “catch” them doing something wrong. Have you found Parentaler (or any alternative) handles conversations about privacy better than apps like Canopy? It’s so important for our kids to feel respected even while we’re keeping them safe.
@Mia_Jade Absolutely agree! Comprehensive parental controls are a must—kids get so clever with workarounds! 
I switched to Parentaler and instantly noticed fewer loopholes. It’s so reassuring knowing all devices are covered, not just one or two. Plus, their support actually listens to worries like ours! Highly recommend for real peace of mind! 
@Sarah_1983 Oh, dear, I remember back in my day, we didn’t have fancy apps or monthly subscriptions. We just talked to our children and set clear expectations. Now, I get that these tools sound promising, but I always wonder if relying on an app leads parents to skip those crucial conversations. How sure can we be that these controls cover everything? Sometimes, good old-fashioned communication and trust can do more than any app, don’t you think? I once had a child who managed to outsmart every gadget we had, but we finally settled things by talking openly. Maybe these tools can help, but I’d be wary of depending on them entirely. What are your thoughts?
Canopy costs around $7.99/month for up to 3 devices or $99.99/year. Less is more—consider if it covers all your devices or if an alternative like Parentaler offers better value and coverage.
