Baby Screen Lock: Kid Safe

Hand over the phone without handing over the phone.

Baby Screen Lock fills the screen with simple tap-to-play activities and locks everything else away, so a toddler cannot call anyone, open anything, or delete your photos. Free.

What it does

The lock is the point

While play is running, taps only reach the activity. Exiting takes a deliberate triple-tap on the lock icon, which a toddler will not find by accident.

33 activities

Bubbles, animals, shapes, drawing, fireworks, xylophone, balloons, kaleidoscope, drums, and more — all driven by tapping, with no menus to read.

Set to the child in front of you

An age band, a play mode, a learning focus, and a session timer, so the same app suits a one-year-old and a four-year-old differently.

Parents get the controls

Sound effects, watch mode, session length, and play history all live behind the parent settings, alongside guided-access setup.

From the App Store listing
