In this update, we are introducing Parental Controls to Pigeon. This new setting reflects upon requests by parents that had wished for an option to communicate with their child via Pigeon, while ensuring certain safeguards are present. The current set of control abilities include the following options: - Disallow access to the sending of the supported message types, such as text, quick replies, GIFs, stickers, location and voice messages. - Disable the search functionality, ensuring that users cannot find unknown chats. - Ensure that reactions can only be viewed. - Block access to web links shared by any user. To setup, check out the new "Parental Controls" option in the settings page. Access can be restricted using a 4 digit passcode. Feature requires watchOS 10.0+ and an active subscription. If you have any other ideas, please feel free to contact me via the options listed in the support url in this App Store listing!
