R7800 parental control with Nighthawk app

I bought the R7800 because of the parental control. Now that Netgear Genie is not supported anymore and Disney Circle does not support the R7800, the parental control does not work anymore. Any chance this device can still do what I bought it for?

    Hi youdue,

     

    Welcome to the community!

     

    You can always use the desktop (PC and Mac) version of the Genie app and manage your LPC settings from there. You download it from here.

      Hi Dexter,

       

      Thanks for your answer, but the Genie app is not available anymore. Your link sends to the Disney Circle which does not support my router.

        I should have read it all. At the bottom I found the link to the desktop app.
