Abstract: Technology is widely used by people of various ages and backgrounds. It has become an easy, affordable, and discrete means to learning and development. Parenting apps can be easily accessed through digital distribution platforms, which is both an opportunity and a challenge for technology users when it comes to choosing the right app for their needs. The present review aims at summarizing the characteristics of parenting apps available online and identifying the areas where improvement is needed to deliver the best services for parents in need of guidance.
