Could you build this?
Partial The guardian-sharing and link-checking features are vibe-codeable, but blocking calls and screening texts depends on restricted native OS telephony APIs. Platform policy and native mobile work are real obstacles.
What it would actually take: Call blocking requires native integration with iOS CallKit or Android CallScreeningService, which needs platform entitlements and store approval. Text and link checks need a reputation or threat-intel data source such as Safe Browsing or a commercial feed. The solution also needs a secure guardian-parent sync backend and a fraud-detection layer that holds up against evolving scams.
