The upgraded integration will enable parents to see their teens’ safety and privacy settings, many of which are set to the strictest standards by default.
Snapchat has introduced expanded Family Center features to give parents even more visibility and further empower them to have productive conversations about online safety. The upgraded integration will enable parents to see their teens’ safety and privacy settings, many of which are set to the strictest standards by default.
Besides that, teens will have the ability to share their story with their friends, or choose a smaller group of close friends and family. It will also enable parents to restrict the ability for My AI, Snapchat’s AI-powered chatbot, to respond to chats from their teen. This feature builds on the safeguards already built into My AI, including protections against inappropriate or harmful responses, temporary usage restrictions if Snapchatters repeatedly misuse the service, and age-awareness.
Snapchat worked closely with families and online safety experts to develop Family Center, and use their feedback to update it with additional features on a regular basis. Snap looks forward to furthering those collaborations and continuing to make Snapchat a fun and safe environment for the entire community.
