does it have parental controls for child use?

Can't get to my manual but the internet says no parental controls. Some mention of app that can be used. I don't have young children so this was not an issue for me.

Yes it does. I have two of them for my daycare and they are used daily. I love them and so do the kids!

I don't know as at this point as I no longer have access to it (bought it for parents). I would imagine that anyone who read my review would avoid this thing at all costs. Good luck!

No, it has a remote control, plays music, auto shutoff, my granddaughter loved it, but it just quit working. It made kind of a funny "clicking" sound from the first time I used it but I thought it was something it did to entertain the infants.

Hello - no, it does not have any other controls except a power switch. The device you plug it into would have to serve as the volume control using its own.

Yes it does. But be aware that it is loaded with chemicals and shouldn't be used for children. I purchased mine hoping to use it for my child but after reading the warning about the chemicals and smelling it-I returned it. Rips easily too, mine ripped right out of the box.

Yes it does or at least it did. My son doesn't use it as much as I want him to. But I was very happy with it. Hope that helps.

I know that Android has some controls built into it natively. I do not think that there are a lot of parental controls in the Kyros. But I do know that there are quite a bit of Parental Control Apps that you can download as well.

I am satisfied with the parental controls. You can restrict the times that anyone is on, you can restrict by MAC address, by URL or keyword. I am restricting by all of these things actually. To my knowledge you can't restrict by category, say adult sites in general. However my children know that I can see every website that they visit so that is enough to keep them honest. If you enter enough keywords you can probably block particular categories, such as adult sites. Finally if you go to the ASUS website you can download the user manual and it will show you all of the controls you can work with. Hope this helps. I am satisfied with the parental controls.

found this in another forum, works perfect."To disable it right-click on the parental control icon in the lower right task bar and click "Free of Control Mode" (you may have to click the expand arrow to see all the programs). Also, if you haven't ever opened parental control, you may or may not have to create a password first, but then everything should work fine."

No, I don't think so. However I do not use it, my kids do. It works really well.

So long as your child is respectful of electronics I don't see why not. Like anything, abused hard enough and it could break. My only recommendation is that you do not save the password to your Google play account or wifi to the tablet so you have control over what gets downloaded and their Internet access.

Just checked with my daughter & no it does not. Hope this was helpful to you.

No, they don't. Doesn't seem to stop my kids from steering it all around the house, though!

No it has toy like CDs that the child learns to put in & take out ... It does play children's songs it is great for smal motor coordination both of my grandchildren loved it & played with it a lot. Best for ages 16 months to two years

Yes, but let's call it the adult prevention switch; it doesn't deter kids but it is difficult for me to use. If I could find the proper adult version I would pay extra for it.
