Parental controls are very import for parents who want their children to stay safe online as well as have control over just how much time a child is spending on their tablet.
The nabi Jr. comes with two modes, nabi Mode – for children – and Parent Mode – for parents. The tablet automatically starts in nabi Mode and to access Parent Mode requires a password to be entered. nabi Mode is a kid-safe environment and comes with a number of pre-installed applications, such as the Wings Learning System.
In Parent Mode the Jr. functions more like a regular Android tablet. Parents can download apps from nabi’s store and add them to what their child can use. They can also set time controls and assign rewards – using nabi Coins, a virtual currency, which can be exchanged by children for content in a curated store – for completing chores or educational goals. Parents can therefore control what their child has access to, grant more access if desired and reward good progress or behaviour.
