To activate Kids Safe Mode, adults can select the setting and then enter their TV PIN. Once the setting is locked in, all live TV channels, recordings, on-demand shows and apps that don\u2019t qualify as kids\u2019 content (up to age 12) are locked.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Kids Safe Mode, Sky is also planning to release a new parents&#8217; guide with Common Sense Media to help parents make more informed choices about what their children watch. Sky has previously rolled out such family-friendly tools as the Sky Broadband Shield, a filter for websites that can be viewed at home; the Sky Kids App, a dedicated streaming service for children\u2019s content; and parental control settings.<\/p>\n<p>Stephen van Rooyen, chief executive for Sky in the U.K. and Ireland, said: \u201cAt Sky, we go further than anyone else to ensure we put families first when developing our services. Sky Q\u2019s new Kids Safe Mode is a super simple way for parents to have ultimate peace of mind when their children are watching TV.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sky, in an effort to make TV safer for children, has launched a brand-new Kids Safe Mode for its Sky Q box.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":15993,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[975],"class_list":["post-15991","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-sky","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Sky Q to Roll Out Kids Safe Mode - TVKIDS<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/sky-q-to-roll-out-kids-safe-mode\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Sky Q to Roll Out Kids Safe Mode - TVKIDS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Sky, in an effort to make TV safer for children, has launched a brand-new Kids Safe Mode for its Sky Q box.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/sky-q-to-roll-out-kids-safe-mode\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVKIDS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2019-03-14T14:14:27+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2019-03-14T14:20:08+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/03\/Sky-kids-safe-mode-0319.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"450\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/sky-q-to-roll-out-kids-safe-mode\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/sky-q-to-roll-out-kids-safe-mode\/\",\"name\":\"Sky Q to Roll Out Kids Safe Mode - TVKIDS\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2019-03-14T14:14:27+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2019-03-14T14:20:08+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/sky-q-to-roll-out-kids-safe-mode\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/sky-q-to-roll-out-kids-safe-mode\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/sky-q-to-roll-out-kids-safe-mode\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Sky Q to Roll Out Kids Safe Mode\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/\",\"name\":\"TVKIDS\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\",\"name\":\"Chelsea Regan\",\"description\":\"Chelsea Regan is the managing editor of World Screen.
