What Pinknovel's age rating means

Things for parents to check
- Pinknovel offers in-app purchases. Without a purchase password or spending limit, a child can run up charges. Set up Ask to Buy (iOS) or a Play purchase PIN (Android).
- Pinknovel shows ads. Ads inside kids' apps can lead to unexpected content or accidental taps that open other stores or links.
How to keep your child safe with Pinknovel

Use Google Family Link to approve installs, set a Play Store content rating limit, require purchase approval, and block or uninstall Pinknovel on your child's device.
