What Doctor Care Anywhere's age rating means

Is Doctor Care Anywhere safe for kids?
Doctor Care Anywhere carries an official age rating of 17+ on the App Store, which means it is not designed for children.

What age rating does Doctor Care Anywhere have?
The App Store rates Doctor Care Anywhere as 17+. This is the store's own content rating, set from the app's features and content, not our opinion. Use it as the starting point for whether it fits your child's age.
Can my child use Doctor Care Anywhere safely?
If you decide to allow it, use device parental controls: Screen Time and Content & Privacy Restrictions on iPhone, or Family Link and Play Store parental controls on Android. Turn on purchase approval, set age-appropriate content limits, and keep the account under your family group so you can see activity.
How do I block or remove Doctor Care Anywhere from my child's phone?
On iPhone, open Settings, Screen Time, Content & Privacy Restrictions, then restrict or delete the app and block reinstalling it. On Android, open Family Link, select your child, find Doctor Care Anywhere and block or uninstall it. You can also set a store age limit so apps above your child's age cannot be installed.
