Today we discussed the social media app WhatsApp, including what it is and how it can be used safely. WhatsApp is a popular way of sharing messages, videos and photos that many children use to keep in contact with friends and family. The app’s minimum age is 16 and we discussed how the privacy settings can be altered so that children can only interact with people in their contacts list. Other safety steps include turning off Live Location, blocking and leaving inappropriate chats as well as deleting mistaken messages.
