Apple has introduced several new measures to enhance the protection of children using its phones.
The updates will assess the age suitability of apps used by users and implement significant changes to the parental control system.
Notably, Apple devices do not require users to enter personal details like birth dates, which are typically requested on other phones.
According to the company, the primary goal of these new systems is to safeguard children online by regulating data usage.
Apple ensures that user privacy remains protected by managing data access, allowing information about children’s ages to be entered only with parental approval.
These changes have restricted access to certain apps for specific age groups, a move Apple considers essential not just for Australia but for other countries worldwide.
