Is ウェザーニュース Safe for Kids?
Age rating is set by Google Play, not by Unstar. This page explains it and adds what parents report in reviews. Not affiliated with NEWSDELIVER LIMITED.
What ウェザーニュース's age rating means
ウェザーニュース holds a family-friendly 3 歳以上 rating on the Google Play. It is broadly appropriate, but a low age rating does not remove every risk: check whether it has chat, ads, or in-app purchases below.
Things for parents to check
- ウェザーニュース 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).
- ウェザーニュース 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 ウェザーニュース
Settings, Screen Time, Content & Privacy Restrictions. Set an age limit for apps, require Ask to Buy for purchases, and restrict or remove ウェザーニュース if it is above your child's age.
Use Google Family Link to approve installs, set a Play Store content rating limit, require purchase approval, and block or uninstall ウェザーニュース on your child's device.
ウェザーニュース for kids: frequently asked questions
Is ウェザーニュース safe for kids?
ウェザーニュース carries a family-friendly official rating (3 歳以上) on the Google Play. That makes it broadly suitable, but even family-rated apps can include chat, ads, or in-app purchases, so check the factors below.
What age rating does ウェザーニュース have?
The Google Play rates ウェザーニュース as 3 歳以上. 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 ウェザーニュース 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 ウェザーニュース 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 ウェザーニュース and block or uninstall it. You can also set a store age limit so apps above your child's age cannot be installed.
