How do you install Samsung Kids Mode?
Set up Samsung Kids Mode in 3 steps
Follow the steps below and set up Samsung Kids Mode:
- Add Kids Mode to your apps
- Set up Samsung Kids
- Set up parental controls
Step 1: add Kids Mode to the available apps
Don't see the 'Kids' icon in the Quick Panel?
- Go to the second menu of the Quick Panel.
- Tap the plus icon. You'll see 'Available icons'.
- Drag the 'Kids' icon down and add it to Quick Panel. You can choose where you place the icon yourself.
On some tablets, the Samsung Kids Mode has already been installed. If that's the case, you can find the app among the apps in the menu.
- Swipe down on the home screen of your Samsung tablet.
- Tap 'Samsung Kids' in the Quick Panel.
Step 2: install Samsung Kids
- Tap 'Kids' in the Quick Panel. Samsung Kids will now open.
- Tap 'Start' in the bottom right corner. Do you want the icon to appear in the menu of your device among your other apps? Make sure to check the box next to 'Add Samsung Kids to app screen'.
- Tap 'Next'. The app is now being installed.
Step 3: set parental controls
-
Enter the information of your child.
-
Create separate profiles for each child.
- Open the Samsung Kids app. Then, tap the 3 dots in the top right corner.
- Tap 'Parental controls'. You'll be asked to enter your PIN code. This is the same code you use to unlock the device.
- Tap 'Set up profile' at the top. If you have multiple children, set up multiple profiles. This way, you can set time limits and app access for each child.
Without the code, your child can't close the app. This allows you to stay in control of what your children do on the tablet when you're not looking. As a final tip, we recommend making sure that your tablet can take a beating with a children's cover.
