Abstract

The quality of social interaction within modern households is increasingly shaped by digital connectivity. However, many existing home network management tools remain technically complex and insufficiently usercentered, limiting their effectiveness in supporting safe and balanced digital engagement. Grounded in usability theory, this study evaluates how a mobile-based Home Network Assisted Tool enhances social experience through improved usability and parental control features. The evaluation framework integrates functional system testing, demographic-based usability assessment, and System Usability Scale (SUS) analysis. Descriptive statistical analysis (mean = 85.5, SD = 6.12) indicates excellent usability performance, supported by a 95% confidence interval within the Grade A range. Additionally, social experience indicators reveal increased parental confidence and reduced supervision stress. Findings demonstrate that usability-centered design in home networking technologies contributes not only to technical efficiency but also to measurable improvements in household digital well-being.
