Episode Details

Apple’s new Assistive Access feature turns iPhones into ultra-safe, kid-friendly devices—locking down web browsing and limiting apps to just calls, texts, and maps. Parents can set custom passcodes, control contacts, and even add apps later as kids grow. It’s a smarter, more secure alternative to traditional screen time limits, with no workarounds without parental access. While it’s a bit slow and won’t replace full iOS anytime soon, it’s a powerful tool for giving kids digital independence without the risks. And with iOS 17, some of these safety features are coming to all devices.
