Kids Corner: Your Child's Exclusive Entertainment Platform

Your Tablet is a great tool for keeping your child entertained, but all parents worry about their kids

becoming addicted to technology, harming their vision, downloading viruses, or accessing content

they're just not ready for. Try using Kids Corner to guide how your little one uses the Tablet. You can

set time limits, access restrictions, installation permissions, and more.

Kids Corner Features:

l App management: Set which apps your child can access. They won't be able to open any other

apps.

l File access restrictions: Choose which photos and videos your child can see on your Tablet.

l Time limits: Manage every aspect of your child's usage by setting daily access frequencies, usage

durations, and break times.

Exciting Features

l Fingerprint access: Enrol your child's ngerprint to help them access Kids Corner from your Tablet

lock screen with just one touch.

l Restrict outside data access: Prevent unwanted fees or charges by blocking third-party app

activities (e.g. sending unwanted text messages). This feature is not supported on Wi-Fi only tablets.

l Filter blue light: Reduce eye strain, and protect your child's vision by ltering out blue light.

l Smart vision protection: Kids Corner comes with many features that help protect your child's

vision. Your little one will get reminders to correct their posture, or to move into environments with

better lighting when using the Tablet. Continued use of the Tablet will be paused until they follow

the suggested usage guidelines. How does it work?

– Kids corner will remind your child to correct their posture, when their eyes are too close to the

screen (i.e. less than 25 cm away), or if the Tablet detects that they are lying down.

– Your child will get a reminder to move into better lighting if the Tablet detects that the

environment is too bright (or too dark).

Enable Kids Corner

Worried about the various types of apps available online that are not suitable for your child? Enable

Kids Corner, the exclusive parental-controlled entertainment platform on your child's Tablet.

Before using Kids Corner, ensure that you have set a screen unlock password. Otherwise, go to

Settings > Security & privacy > Screen lock & passwords > Password, and set a screen

unlock password.

Open Children's Corner. Follow the onscreen instructions to set a Kids Corner password, enter

your child's name, gender, date of birth, and record his or her ngerprint. Once the set up is

complete, you can start using Kids Corner.

In Kids Corner, you can:

l Set parental controls: Go to Parental control to control how your child uses his or her Tablet

(such as managing the available apps, images, and multimedia your child would have access to,

limiting the daily durations and number of times you would allow your child to access his or her

Tablet, as well as enabling resting periods).

l Exit Kids Corner: Touch Exit, and enter your Kids Corner password to exit Kids Corner.
