What rednote's age rating means
rednote is rated 12 歳以上 on the Google Play, meaning it targets older teenagers, not young children. With parental controls and an honest conversation, many teens use apps like this fine, but the rating exists for a reason.
Things for parents to check
- rednote 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).
- rednote shows ads. Ads inside kids' apps can lead to unexpected content or accidental taps that open other stores or links.
