Byte-Sized Safety Guides: Snapchat
This guide by ClickSafe Intelligence outlines how parents and guardians can use Snapchat’s Family Center to supervise their teen’s account after connecting via mutual friend requests and accepted invitations. It emphasizes setting accurate birthdates, turning off location sharing, limiting contact settings to friends and known phone contacts, and regularly reviewing privacy settings due to potential app changes.
