Facebook launched a Sleep Mode in Messenger Kids
Facebook has launched a Sleep Mode in Messenger Kids will allow parents to set predetermined "off times" for the app on a child's device. When the app is in Sleep Mode,kids cannot send or receive messages or video calls, play with the creative camera or receive notification. If they try to open the app, they'll see a message telling them that it's in sleep mode and to come back later.
With Sleep Mode, parents can easily designated off time and each day at the designated time, the app will "go to sleep" and not be accessible to kids during those hours. The mode is controlled from the Parent Control Centre in the parent's Facebook account and the off times
can be changed at any time.
How messanger-kids sleep mode works
Go to the Messenger Kids controls in the main Facebook app. Tap on the child's name, and then on Sleep Mode in the App Controls' section. Now, set the times you want the app to turn off for your child.
You can set different times for weekdays. Once you set the limits, the child will not be able to use the app during those hours. Parents can easily access all of their controls from the Messenger Kids controls in the main Facebook app. In addition to Sleep Mode, parents can add and remove contacts, delete the child's account, or create a new account right from the control panel.
