Safe Kids doesn't just support allowing or blocking site types, though: unusually, you can also set a category to 'Warn'. You're able to restrict websites by category (Adult, Violence, Drugs, and more). (Keeping your kids away from particular types of site is welcome, but if they're repeatedly trying to find that content, that might also be worth knowing about.) Safe Kids Premium adds the option to send an alert if your kids are actively searching for restricted content, a very handy extra. This starts with enforced safe search on Bing, Google, Yahoo, Yandex (unusually – but Kaspersky is a Russian firm, as is this search engine) and YouTube, reducing the chance that your kids will find inappropriate content. Kaspersky's web content filtering uses a well-judged mix of approaches to keep your child away from dubious sites.

If you're just getting started then you'll bypass all that and head to the Settings page, where you can set per-child rules for internet access, app management, device usage and location tracking. Their location is displayed at the top (if you're using Safe Kids Premium), with any recent requests underneath ('can I use this app?', 'can I access this website?'), and any recent internet or app-related alerts.
Kaspersky Safe Kids' Parent Mode opens with a summary page for one child. Installation is mostly about approving all the permissions Safe Kids needs (nothing unexpected: access location, manage phone calls, run as a device administrator), choosing whether this is the parent's or child's system, and creating a PIN which prevents others from changing app settings. Safe Kids' setup works much like any other parental control app, maybe apart from the fact that you don't have to pay to try it out.
