What you can do
- Choose Safe Keyboard for text or Safe Camera for an image.
- Paste the text or choose the image yourself. The apps do not automatically scan sharing from other apps.
- Check the text or photo yourself and think about who it is for. The app can miss things; you decide whether to share.
- Copy the text or save the edited image if you want to use it. The version available to try cannot check video.
Avoid
- Listen first, without blaming or shaming your child.
- Do not forward private messages, intimate images or explicit screenshots.
- No app can protect against everything. Do not promise that it can.
For parents
Make clear that your child can get help even if they have broken an agreement.
