Remote Monitoring Requests

Parents can send remote monitoring requests to the child device. This page explains what appears on Android.

Remote Camera Request​

When a parent requests camera access:

  1. Child sees a request dialog.
  2. Child can Accept or Deny.
  3. On first use, Android may also ask for camera permission.

If accepted, the child device starts camera streaming.

Screen Mirror Request​

For screen mirroring:

  • Android shows the system screen-capture permission prompt.
  • Child must approve that system prompt to continue.
  • The app may move to background automatically while capture starts.

Remote Screenshot Request​

For one-time screenshot capture:

  • Android shows the same system screen-capture prompt.
  • Child can allow or deny.
  • If allowed, a screenshot is captured and sent to parent-side session flow.

Safety Notes​

  • If denied, parent must send a new request to try again.
  • During active screen mirror, Android shows a foreground capture notification.
