About this app

Kids Place – Parental Control & Kids Mode

Kids Place is a dedicated Kids Mode & Parental Control 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 Parental Control App:

Kids Mode Launcher With Parental Controls
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 Blocker
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.

Free Version Includes

Child-friendly launcher and kids space.

Ability to block unapproved apps.


Premium (Optional Subscription/One-Time Purchase) Adds

Profiles: Create different profiles for each child.

Screen time controls: Flexible app and device limits.

Background Mode: Run Kids Place in backgorund mode with stock launcher.

Tamper Protection: Restart on reboot

Important Permissions & Disclosures

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.

Accessibility Service Permission(Optional): Used to lock the notification bar and prevent kids from leaving Kids Mode.

Privacy & Security
Kids Place uses above permissions to enforce parental control features. For full details, see our Privacy Policy https://kiddoware.com/kids-place-privacy-policy/
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.

Easy to use for parent and child, but my problem is that it lets my child leave the app at almost anytime. For example, when she gets ads, if she taps the ad it opens Google Play, and if she hits the back button, it brings her into the normal tablet, not kid mode. I do have a password on the app, so she shouldn't be able to get out easily. I like how I can organize her apps easily, but I wish she couldn't get out of kid mode so easily.

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.
