Problem

As the use of mobile devices and tablets became more widespread, parents were concerned about their children's safety when using these devices. Parents wanted to be able to hand over their devices to their kids without worrying about them accessing inappropriate content or accidentally making purchases.

We recognized this as a problem and saw an opportunity to create a solution that would allow parents to feel more comfortable giving their devices to their children.

Solution

We developed the first Kids Mode project for Samsung devices in LATAM. This feature allowed parents to set up a safe environment for their children on their mobile and tablet devices. Kids Mode provided a curated selection of apps, games, and videos that were appropriate for children, as well as parental controls that restricted access to certain features and content.

The success of our product pitch led to Kids Mode becoming an integrated part of the Samsung lineup of tablets and mobile worldwide. We continued to improve the feature by adding new content and features over time, ensuring that it remained relevant and useful for families around the world.

Impact

Kids Mode has been downloaded X% times worldwide since its launch
The feature has received overwhelmingly positive reviews from parents who appreciate the peace of mind it provides
"Kids Mode has been a game-changer for our family. I no longer have to worry about my kids accessing inappropriate content or accidentally making purchases. Thank you Samsung!"
