KoalaSafe is a simple tool to make your kids healthier internet users

At present, KoalaSafe is only able to block access to the online components of apps and games. Devices have to be connected to KoalaSafe's network for its functionality to take effect; this means that children on cellular networks would not be subject to filtering or blocks.

A KoalaSafe app is available for iOS, and a web interface is available that works across Android, Windows Phone, Windows and Mac. Pack said the company will to make a native Android app in the future. Parents are also able to download an optional "client" KoalaSafe app onto their children's devices that provides notifications warning them when their internet access will be cut off.

KoalaSafe is being funded through Kickstarter, but the company is also investigating telcos as a potential point of distribution. Customers can "purchase" a KoalaSafe through the Kickstarter campaign from AUD$70. The company is hoping to raise AUD$98,000.
