If someone tries to add your child but your child doesn’t add them back, any attempted calls and messages will get rejected and remain unseen. To add someone you need to know their phone number or JusTalk ID or have access to their QR code. There are no notifications about who has added you, no friend request to respond to, connecting with another person on JusTalk requires both parties to be aware of each other outside the app. Removing the possibility for children to connect with strangers is one of the key reasons why a separate, children’s service is necessary, to ensure safety and prevent “stranger danger”, so how do they achieve this? It’s simple enough, for a contact to be added to your list, you have to add them AND they have to add you. This can be done using the device’s phone number, but also by simply choosing an available ID and setting a password. Once downloaded, the main setup task is to create an account.

Obviously here at Kidslox we’re committed first and foremost to the safety of our kids when they’re online. We wanted to find an app that provides simple, reliable and fun ways for communicating with our kids when we’re away, that doesn’t leave them exposed to the security or privacy risks inherent in so many video and messaging apps. Modern communication apps provide us with great ways to make our parenting consistent and full of family talk times. Thankfully, technology can help take the edge off of these stings. Whether it’s work, chores, circumstances, or something else, life seems to find all sorts of ways to have us be late for the graduation ceremony, far away from home on their Birthday or otherwise unavailable at the worst possible moment. The truth is that we are not all perfect parents and we can’t always make ‘family time’ to be with our children as often as we’d want. We all understand how important it is to share everyday moments, emotions, thoughts, plans and achievements.
