Our verdict
GoHenry USA is a straightforward annual subscription for US families who want set yearly fees, phone support and a small device list. It suits parents on iOS and Android with a few family phones, and it will not suit anyone counting on desktop coverage, live chat or a long device lineup.

Frequently asked questions
How much does GoHenry USA cost a year?+
GoHenry USA sets one yearly price of $96 to $144, quoted in US dollars, and that is the figure a household budgets for. The operator behind the plan is GoHenry Inc, based in the United States, so billing and support stay in the same market.
How many devices does one subscription cover?+
The plan covers 4 devices, which suits a household with a couple of family phones more than a large device estate. The median across the parental-controls category is 10, so bigger families outgrow the ceiling faster.
Which platforms does the GoHenry USA app run on?+
Apps cover iOS and Android, so a parent runs the account from a phone or tablet. A household that also wants desktop control has a wider fit with Control D, which runs on Windows, macOS and Linux and keeps a single dashboard across those devices.
Can I reach a person for help?+
Support runs on email, phone and help centre, which puts phone help alongside email and a help centre. Live chat is not among the listed channels, so a parent who plans to manage everything in writing keeps all three routes open.
How does it compare with the free tools in the Apple ecosystem?+
Apple lists a yearly price of $0, so a family already settled on that hardware has a free starting point. GoHenry USA charges $96 to $144 a year, and the gap buys phone support and a stated device list rather than a smaller bill.
Is GoHenry USA a US service?+
The operator is GoHenry Inc, based in the United States, and the plan is priced in US dollars. ESET Brasil lists BRL 64.22 to BRL 278.32 a year in reais for the Brazilian market, so the two figures are not a like-for-like read.
Who is GoHenry USA built for?+
GoHenry USA is aimed at US households with a small set of family phones: 4 devices, apps on iOS and Android, and support on email, phone and help centre. Parents who want desktop and Linux coverage or a longer device list have better fits in the wider category.
How does it score against the rest of the category?+
On the comparison site the overall score sits at 1.2, split into cost at 2.3 and offer at 0. Yearly price places 25 of 32 brands, while device cover places 3 of 3.
