Children of
present generation are very crazy about internet, where they want to play games
through handheld devices like mobile phones, tablets, MacBook and Notebook
laptop. Children not only want to play games, they also want to chat with their
friends through social media.
You could
have seen an amazing evolution in technology from generation to generation.
When we were kids, we didn’t have mobile phone and we knew only landline which was
fixed in a particular place and not able to carry anywhere. The first cellular
phone came to India on July 31, 1995 and today in India, the number of mobile
phone users crossed over 1 billion because of the apps which is make it simple for the users with help of mobile app development company mumabi, India and USA.
Today we are
caring more about our kid’s safety because family safety always comes first to
our mind, which may be either outside home or inside. We need to make sure that
our kids are safe from misguiding things. This has been possible using the
internet, mobile, and mobile applications with the help of mobile app development companies in Gurgaon and noida. Making
children future ready through mobile technology is not a bad thing, but we shouldn’t
want our kids always to be online. Though there is a possibility of adopting
misguiding things using mobile by children. How we can avoid this? If you’re an
iPhone or iPad user, below are some features in the same devices that help your
children be away from the bad.]
Restriction
In the iOS
devices, there is feature called Restriction for kids, where we can restrict
the kids to features like allows only camera, face time, car play, etc. and
restrict from third party apps like WhatsApp, Facebook, etc.. To find Restriction
feature on iPhone and iPad, go to setting
/ general / Restriction.
Internet
We know that
our kids are not old enough to access the internet, but sometimes we have to allow
them for accessing our iPhone or iPad or MacBook within our environment. Some
contents on the device are protected by password. For example, YouTube App and
website are restricted to some content for some level.
Phone Call
We should
make our children restricted for the phone call for certain age limits and it
will change as they get older. Once removing the restriction while old SIM
being used, the new SIM can work with iPhone. If they use new SIM without
removing the restriction, it won’t work.
Messaging
We can give
access to iMessages for our kids where they can send messages within the family
and also their friends, but we should keep eye on the messages that who is
sending and to whom for safety reasons.
Email
Email is
also one of the options where children can connect with their friends, but in
the email, we don’t have control to look into what is going in the conversation,
so there is an app called tocomail.com where it allows parents restrict and
monitor the email address from which mail is sent to your kids account and it
is a great app for kids to email.
Social Media
When we come
to social media in iPhone and iPad, it is third party apps like Facebook,
Snapchat, Instagram, and WhatsApp. This is a very complex area, where parents
need to guide kids in right way. Most of the apps have age restriction, but they
just ask age, but not verify while signing up. So in social media, suggestion of
parents is very important for kids.
However,
parents and kid’s choices differ, so some the above points may not suit to your
family. As parent, we need to take care of our kids in mobile usage from
benefiting safety features in the devices.
