For parents and guardians
What families can see and set, and what stays private.
Yapp is a friendship app for teens and adults. Teens only meet people in their own age group.
Encrypted in transit and at rest, not end-to-end. Yapp’s safety systems scan content, and our team can review it to keep people safe or when the law requires or allows it.
What families can see and set
-
Consent comes first where the law asks for it.
Where a state requires it, a teen sees a one-time consent step at sign-up, lightest method first.
-
The Parent Portal is optional.
Parents see activity and time summaries, never message content.
-
Spending has a limit you can set.
A linked parent can set the teen’s monthly spending limit. Lowering applies at once; raising waits 24 hours.
-
You can raise a concern.
The Parent Portal includes a Raise a concern option, alongside activity summaries and safety resources.
