Do this important work before handing over the phone to children, otherwise your account may become empty..

If you also have children at home and they do not leave your phone even after explaining a million times, then you must take some necessary precautions with your phone. If you carelessly hand over your phone to children, then not only can your phone get damaged but your bank account can also get emptied. Earlier also, many such cases have come into the news where due to carelessness, children emptied the entire bank account of their parents or a family member on some game or app. Today we will give you some such suggestions that you must adopt while giving the phone to children.

Use a cover on the phone.

Many people like to use the phone without any cover. Such people give utmost importance to the feel of the phone. If you also use the phone without any cover, then do not make this mistake when you have children in your house. Whenever you hand over your phone to a child, put a cover and screen guard on the phone. There is a high possibility that children may drop your phone. In such a situation, the phone should be given to children with a cover and if possible a screen guard.

Pin the app
If you are giving the phone to the child to use an app or the child wants to play a game on your phone for some time, then pin that app or game and then hand over the phone to the child. This will prevent the child from going to any other app or game. Another advantage of doing this is that as long as the child is with the phone, you will be assured that he cannot access anything on the phone except that app or game.

Put a biometric lock on purchases.
Despite pinning the game and giving it to the child, he may pay for an item or service from your bank account in the game itself. Such news often comes that while playing games, the child emptied the bank account of the parents or someone known to him. In such a situation, you must keep a biometric lock on your phone to prevent unwanted purchases. Purchases of any game on Android smartphones are made through Google Play Store. In such a situation, to put a biometric verification lock on the Play Store, open the Google Play Store app, then tap on the profile icon on the top right and go to "Settings". There, choose the "Authentication" or "User Controls" option and turn on "Biometric authentication". Now the question of the child making an inadvertent purchase will end.

Keep payment and important apps locked.

While giving the phone to children, keep important apps like payment apps, messaging apps gallery, etc. locked. This will prevent the child from tampering with your useful apps in any way and your important data will remain safe in all circumstances. For this, many phones have inbuilt apps. Or you can also download App Lock from the Play Store.

Keep the blue light filter on
There are two benefits of keeping the blue light filter on while handing over the phone to children. One is that as long as the children use the phone, their eyes will not be affected. Secondly, watching content or playing games with blue light can be boring. This is because when you keep the blue light off, the color of the screen becomes quite yellow and the fun of playing games or watching content decreases. This will make your child not want to use the phone for a long time.
