The step-by-step support to use Kids Home feature
Kids Home contains fun and safe children’s content in a playful learning environment.
It lets you set the playtime limit, control permissions, and provides usage reports so you know what your child is learning.
Please note: Kids Home is available on the Galaxy S10’s and the Tab S4. On other devices with Android version 9.0 it is available to download via Galaxy Apps.
Kids Home is simple to setup and is located in your phone’s notification panel.

Now that you have setup Kids Home you can get to know the main features.
