About Roo Kids Chat App

Roo Kids is a fun messaging app for kids with minimum yet critical parental controls.

The two biggest concerns parents have are strangers sneaking in and chatting with their kids and kids chatting when they should be doing their homework. 'Roo Kids Chat App' addresses these concerns directly.

SAFETY

A parent creates the kid's account and gets to choose the kid’s username.

On 'Roo Kids Chat App', the parent is notified when a kid adds a new user to their contact list. The parent can remove or permanently block a user. Kids can report abusive messages or users. Parents can take further action on their kid’s reports and report the abusive user to Roo Kids, at which point we will delete the offending user's account.

CURFEW

Parents can set 'Curfew Time' during which the live chat will not work.

PRIVACY

We do not request, collect, or guess your geo-location. As soon as the instant message is delivered, it is removed from our servers. We may retain offline messages till they are delivered. Once delivered, they are removed from our server. We do not sell or trade your personal information.

COOL CHAT FRIENDS

We have some cool friends for you to chat with while your friends join you on Roo Kids Chat App. Meet Echo: sends back any message, sketch or photo you send it. A simple way to explore the app's capabilities. Meet Puzzle: sends you a puzzle to solve. You can always ask for the answer too. More such cool and educational friends are coming soon.

SECURITY

All information (username, password, messages, etc.) is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology. This is the same technology used by banks and online e-commerce websites. Anyone 'tapping' into your network cannot read passwords or the messages being exchanged.

ADVERTISING

We do not display ads anywhere on the app.

This is definitely safe for children

My daughter is using this app to keep in touch with her best friend who changed school. It is an easy and safe app for children but a lot of time the app just doesn't work properly. I think it happens 2 to 4 times per week, the app just won't log in. It is a bit frustrating. (Not to mention about the password issue, once you log out it wont let you log back in, request new password and it doesn't work). Hope they fix this because my daughter would like to keep her best friend around.

Won't let my child log in. Had password reset and sent to my e mail but app keeps saying "password does not match registered account". Plz plz fix, cos I absolutely LOVE this app. It's sooo safe and easy to manage for us ("old folk") who are not tech savvy!!!

Disappointed. Really like the idea, but so far is too complicated to use. As a parent, i have not been able to text, or to add friends for myself (as a kid)or my daughter because it keeps telling me there is no parental relation. In addition, it does not allow parents to monitor multiple kids/accounts, and does not allow for switching users on the same device...at least if it does have those options, i havent been able to figure them out...

Terrible! Tried for an hour to send a message from either my phone or my sons tablet. Nothing ever made it! Great idea...if only it worked, which it doesnt.

Y70%

Nice idea but it doesn't seem to work all the time. Doesn't stay logged in. I get notifications but the app opens as if for the first time. Doesn't keep my messages. Every time I have to log back in all previous messages are lost.

Y70%
by Y####:

Really good idea. Poorly executed. Very difficult to set up a safe chat system between me and my child. Buggy. After setting it up i could add myself or my son. Will keep an eye on this app but wont use it at the momwnt.

Terrible. Hard to use, JSON errors, email I got had "You verification code is" and no verification code. Waste of my time.

Doesnt work properly on samsung tablet

When I go into settings and try to click stickers the app crashes. I use this to text with my daughter and where as it is basic and barely works, it doesn't cut it. The concept is adorable though. It needs more sticker option, more drawing colors and I'd like it personally if the messages would save so I can see what she's been saying with her friends. Just a suggestion.

S70%
by S####:

It's improving! I would have rated it better if I still didn't have to reinstall it from time to time due to crashes. But at least it gets more stable after reinstalling.

I love the idea of the app, and my daughter was so excited to get texts from me. I just set it up between she and I. Unfortunately half the time our messages don't show up.

Q70%

My kids love this app to chat with cousins that live out of town. There are some lags and difficulty sending messages at time. I also just noticed that my niece has a drawing feature that my kids don't see on their devices. No update for it? Would love to see some more improvements for this app. Very kid friendly, love the security.

E70%
by E####:

Useless app that requires a password reset every time I log in. Latest attempt to reset sits and spins with the message "authenticating". I created one child's account flawlessly, but not the other's. It's been at least a week and I'm still waiting for an account verification email. Save yourself the hassle and do not install.

Q70%
by Q####:

I had a few problems setting it up, it still has some things to iron out. However the support people are quite helpful and we sorted it out, and now my daughter is so happy to have an app she can use to chat with her friends, and I like to be kept up to date. It's a little funny that I have to create a username and give myself approval if I want to chat with her, but it works! :)
