Come on - just replied almost the same question - please do some read and search before posting.
There will probably never be Live Parental Controls on the Nighthawk App - the impression is that they put Circle under the "Parental Control" tile seen on some CES2019 demos and screenshots - in the Nighthawk App.
Only the WIndows and macOS desktop Genie versions will allow to support Live Parental Controls (LPC) - https://kb.netgear.com/25687/How-do-I-configure-Live-Parental-Controls-on-my-NETGEAR-router on Nighthawk App supported routers.
Downloads are available at the end of the Genie landing page https://www.netgear.com/home/discover/apps/lpc.aspx
Issue disputed and reported many times, e.g. here in the collection of Nighthawk App Bugs and Issues - https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-App/BUG-REPORT-Speed-Test-Information-Home-Screen-Wrong-S...
