Gauth
ParentMode's take
13+ with active parental awareness; 16+ for independent use
Gauth is an AI homework assistant designed to explain problems and concepts rather than provide direct answers. However, AI companions trained on user interactions can develop personalized relationships that may encourage oversharing; younger teens lack the maturity to recognize when an AI interaction differs from human support, and the app's 4+ rating does not reflect the cognitive demands of using AI safely.

What a parent can do
Data & privacy
Check the app's privacy label in the App Store—assume all chat history may be retained and used to improve the AI model, even if the developer claims otherwise.
Controls
Use device-level restrictions (Screen Time on iOS, Family Link on Android) to set daily limits and view app activity; review the app's in-app settings for account privacy options.
A cautious next step
If your teen needs homework help, consider pairing this tool with direct teacher or tutor interaction so they develop confidence in asking humans, not only AI.
