Many social media platforms, like Twitter and Instagram, provide parental controls, and Snapchat is no exception. Snapchat has introduced the Family Center feature, which allows parents to monitor their teens’ activities and block sensitive content.
This new feature, called Restrict Sensitive Content, helps protect children from seeing inappropriate content such as certain Stories and Spotlight recommendations.
What is Sensitive Content on Snapchat?
Snapchat offers two types of content: Regular and Sensitive. While regular content is suitable for all ages, sensitive content includes material that Snapchat deems inappropriate, such as:
– Nudity or adult content.
– Explicit language.
– Content promoting violence, terrorism, hate, or molestation.
What Does the “Restrict Sensitive Content” Feature Do?
When enabled, the Restrict Sensitive Content feature:
– Blocks all sensitive content on Snapchat.
– Allows teens to report any safety concerns.
– Filters out inappropriate Stories and Spotlight recommendations.
