About this app

Kids Place – Parental Control & Kids Mode

Kids Place is a dedicated Kids Mode app that helps parents create a controlled environment for their children on phones and tablets. With Kids Place, parents can set screen time, and block unapproved apps — giving children a space to play, learn, and explore. Kids Place uses app package names to control access. It does not view or read the content inside apps — blocking is rule-based on approved apps (package names), not on app content.

Key Features of Kids Place

Kids Mode Launcher
Turn your device into a kid-friendly space. Only parent-approved apps appear on the home screen, and kids stay inside Kids Place until you exit with your PIN.

App Control
Decide which apps are visible and usable. Block access to apps you don’t approve.

Screen Time Limits
Set daily time limits for the device or for individual apps to encourage healthy digital habits.

Block Purchases & Downloads
Prevent children from making accidental purchases or downloading new apps from the Play Store.

Child-friendly launcher and kids space.

Device Administrator Permission (Optional): This permission is requested to make it difficult for children to uninstall the app without a parent's permission, helping to ensure that parental controls remain active on the device.

Privacy & Security

Kids Place is designed to support parents—not replace them. No technology can block 100% of unwanted use, so parental supervision and guidance remain important.

Used to be better. I have used this for years. It takes just a few seconds to change which apps they're allowed to access, so I use that to only allow certain games at certain times. there is no junk with this app. My main problem is that it frequently randomly goes off the app altogether, which completely negates usefulness, or it will freeze or crash when trying to use a timer. I have factory reset the phone, updated the app, etc. This just keeps happening randomly. Looking for a different app

Finally got my phone off of what I think was Korean. I had this ap for years and it worked, then suddenly it stopped. My child can get out and get into any app in my phone. Has made phone calls, posted nonsense on facebook, all sorts of things. For 2 months I have uninstalled, reinstalled, updated, done everything possible. I thought it was fixed, having no problems for a week. Today she managed to change the language on my phone and order something on Amazon.

After using this for about a year I can say if you have an older device this app doesn't work well. It's more annoying than it is helpful. It lags and always has a popup about a kids safe browser. My kid is 3, I don't want her on the internet at all. Adding/removing apps is annoying and slow and under certain circumstances the app will only load a handful of your allowed games/content. You have to go back in, disallow them all and re-allow them to get them to show up again. Good concept overall
