Safe Eyes Mobile App for Safe Web Browsing Receives Mom's Choice Award

McAfee announced today that the McAfee® Safe Eyes® Mobile App, a filtered browser that helps parents manage children's Internet use on the Apple iPhone, iPad and iTouch, has earned top honors in the Mom's Choice Awards for family-friendly products with a gold award from the prestigious Mom's Choice panel of judges. The browser was as well recently recognized by Parents.com as one of the best apps to prevent cyberbullying.

"These new recognitions for the Safe Eyes Mobile browser reflect growing awareness of the need to protect children from exposure to objectionable Internet material on mobile devices, and particularly on kid-friendly products like the iPhone and iPad," said Shane Kenny, McAfee director of sales and marketing. "It's important to keep browsing safe for younger users, whether they're using the desktop computer in the family room, Mom's new iPad, or the smartphone they got for the holidays."

A $49.95 Safe Eyes software annual subscription covers up to three Mac and/or PC computers with the ability to customize settings for each child and enforce them on any machine. Safe Eyes Mobile software for iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch is available separately at the Apple iTunes store.
