Where the time goes
A closer look at YouTube
A CONVERSATION STARTER
“What was something you enjoyed or learned on the computer today?”
These records cannot tell you everything your child experienced online. Review them together and make space for anything that felt confusing or uncomfortable.
Applications
Recorded active time. Unreported periods are not counted as zero use.
A page observation is evidence of a visit, not attention or intent. “Seen” means its duration was not measured. Page time is already part of browser application time.
Pages viewed
Received page observations, most recent first. Open background tabs are not a record of viewing.
“Seen” means a video page was observed, with no measured playback. Estimates use Windows media reports matched to the active browser tab. Background playback and fullscreen can have gaps; estimates may include ads or buffering.
YouTube activity
The day, piece by piece
Application, page, playback, and collection records may overlap. Do not add them together.
What this can tell you
Tracktor reports what its collector observed and successfully synced. It does not certify that a child is safe, measure attention, or explain why a page was opened.
Chrome and Edge pages are supported on Windows. Private, guest, and unrecognized browser layouts can be excluded. Unknown periods stay unknown. A parent dashboard does not override a pause on the child’s computer.

Clears the cloud copy now and requests deletion on the child’s computer when it reconnects.
