WhatsApp Kid Mode

About

WhatsApp Kid Mode lets parents safely share a laptop for school work without exposing personal messages.

When your child's teacher sends homework, notes, or class updates to your phone and your child needs to use WhatsApp Web on the laptop, this extension turns WhatsApp Web into a locked-down, kid-safe view.

How it works:
1. Open the extension and set a 6-digit parent PIN.
2. Choose which contacts and groups your child is allowed to use.
3. Switch to Kid Mode.
4. Only the allowed chats are visible. Everything else is hidden and locked.

Key features:

• Allow only selected chats
  Parents whitelist school groups, teachers, and classmates. Kids can only open those conversations.

• Hide everything else
  Personal messages, family chats, and unknown contacts are invisible - not just blurred.

• 6-digit parent PIN
  Settings are protected by a PIN so children cannot disable Kid Mode or view blocked chats.

• Search disabled
  The WhatsApp search bar is removed in Kid Mode so kids cannot search for hidden contacts.

• No new chats or groups
  Kids cannot start new conversations or create new groups while Kid Mode is active.

• Allowed chats on top
  Whitelisted chats are grouped together at the top of the chat list for easy access.

• No reset access for kids
  The reset button is hidden in Kid Mode so settings stay protected.

• Works on WhatsApp Web
  Install once, enable on https://web.whatsapp.com. No phone changes needed.

Privacy note:
WhatsApp Kid Mode does not collect, transmit, or store any messages or personal data. All settings are saved locally in your browser.

Perfect for:
• Parents sharing a laptop with children
• Summer holiday school work on WhatsApp Web
• Keeping personal and work chats private from kids

Permissions:
This extension needs access to web.whatsapp.com to hide chats and show only allowed conversations.
