5. HERE ARE 5 APPS THAT YOU
SHOULD BE WEARY OF, AS
A PARENT:
6. KIK MESSENGER.
• The App allows kids to
send private messages
that their parents can’t
see. There is no way that
you can know that the
person on the other end
is who they say they are,
which obviously poses
the risk of sexual
predators chatting with
your child.
7. POOF!
• The Poof App allows users to
make Apps disappear on their
phone with one touch. Kids can
hide every app they don’t want
you to see on their phone. All
they have to do is open the App
and select the ones they don’t
want you to see.
• The good news about this App
is it is no longer available. But,
if it was downloaded before it
was deleted from the App store,
your child may still have it.
8. OMEGLE
• Omegle has been around and
has gamed fame for its
notoriety. You do not identify
yourself through the service –
chat participants are only
identified as “You” and
“Stranger”. You don't have to
register for the App. There is a
high risk of sexual predators
and you don’t want your kids
giving out their personal
information, much less even
talking to strangers.
9. SNAPCHAT
• This App allows users to
send photos that will
disappear after 10 seconds.
Once the recipient opens
the picture, the timer
starts. Then it’s gone. From
both the sender's phone
and the recipient’s
phone. However, the
recipient can take a screen
shot of the photo and have
it to share with others and
that
10. TINDER
• Tinder is essentially a
dating app that links two
Facebook profiles and
allows the two
communication. Even
though the only way to
login to the app is via
Facebook, there is still a
chance of children falling
prey to sexual predators
who masquerade under
fake Facebook Profiles.
