How Does Each G-mee Co-Pilot Feature Work?
We’ve created a series of step-by-step videos to guide you through setting up and using each feature of G-mee Co-Pilot. Whether you’re new to the system or just need a quick refresher, these videos will help you make the most of every feature.
Talk and Text
You don’t want the G-mee user to call/send SMS and receive calls/SMS to and from unknown phone numbers?
As a ‘Co-Pilot’, you can:
- Create an Allow List for who can call and send SMS to the G-mee Connect Pro user, as well a Block List for numbers who cannot call and message the G-mee Connect Pro user.
- Block calls and SMS to and from numbers not in the allow list
- Block calls and SMS to and from unknown/private phone numbers
Blocking MMS on the G-mee Messenger
- G-mee has developed an SMS App called the G-mee Messenger
- Through the G-mee Co-pilot app, you will be able to turn off the ability to send and receive MMS on the G-mee Messenger. Please note that once you turn off MMS, the G-mee user won’t be able to send and receive any MMS from any phone numbers even from numbers added to the Allow List
Track
Need to check the location of the G-Mee device?
We understand how important peace of mind is, which is why we’ve included this feature in the Co-Pilot app!
Simply open the managed device, tap the gear icon, and select ‘Find My Kid’s Device’ to instantly check its location.
Remote App Lock
No need to grab the device away!
With the Co-Pilot, you can remotely lock and unlock apps at your convenience. Plus, you can set individual limits for specific apps, choosing the days and times they automatically lock and unlock.
Simply tap on the app from the Co-Pilot’s app list, and customize limits with ease for each app.
Bluelight Manager
It’s widely reported the exposure of too much bluelight can be harmful. We wanted to help promote positive screen hygiene by encouraging reduced blue light exposure especially at night.
Through the G-mee Co-Pilot, parents and guardians can easily take control by remotely activating a Blue Light filter on the managed G-Mee device, helping to promote healthier screen use.
Block In-App Videos (beta)
Want to ensure your kids are focused on music, not videos, while using Spotify?
With the G-mee Co-Pilot, you can block video content in Video Podcasts, encouraging music-only listening and helping maintain a more focused and safe media experience.
Parent PIN
A Parent PIN is pre-set on both the G-Mee Connect Pro and G-Mee Play Pro to ensure users cannot bypass the settings.
For added convenience, you can easily reset the PIN remotely through the Co-Pilot app, providing peace of mind and control at your fingertips.
Quick Facts

However, you’ll need to decide which parental control system you’ll use for app blocking and locking—either Family Link or the G-Mee Co-Pilot.
No, the G-Mee Play Pro is a ‘Smartplayer,’ not a smartphone.
It’s a Google-registered device that allows you to use apps, but it does not have cellular capabilities. The G-Mee Play Pro is a Wi-Fi-only device, designed for app use without phone functions.
Yes, the G-Mee Connect Pro is ideal for seniors, especially if they primarily use it for calls and texts.
As their guardian, you can even use the G-Mee Co-Pilot to set up an ‘allow list,’ ensuring they can only make or receive calls from approved phone numbers. This feature helps protect them from potential scams and unwanted calls.
The G-Mee Co-Pilot is designed to let you remotely manage the G-Mee device from your phone via the Co-Pilot app.
With features like blocking calls and texts, and limiting app usage, it offers comprehensive parental management. On the other hand, the App Locker is a built-in solution that allows you to lock individual apps (e.g., Chrome, Play Store) directly on the device before handing it over to the user.
