Kik Monitoring

It is estimated that 40 % of teenagers in the U.S use Kik. The number of kids using Kik messenger is a serious cause for concern. Especially for parents who have no clue what kids do on Kik and who they are chatting with. Unfortunately, there are no built-in parental controls on Kik. But for careful parents there are parental apps that monitor Kik, Kidsecured is one of them.

Why to read Kik messages with parental controls?

As we already mentioned, Kik is so popular due to its anonymity. Let us explain, Kik doesn’t require a phone number to register an account, but at the same time it uses IP address to identify the location. This opens a door wide open to those online predators who lure vulnerable kids into their trap. Also, like other instant messengers, Kik may be used for cyberbullying and sexting. So as a parent, it is important to monitor kid’s Kik and other instant messengers.
