Please don’t use SnapChat! Zero parental controls/oversight for minors. The app security is trash. Support does not exist. If your minor gets hacked (which is easy as their two factor authentication is shallow) and the hacker changes the email address - SnapChat cannot delete the account or suspend it because they no longer consider the admin history of your account as valid. They will not communicate with the parent and will not accept a delete request from the user or the parent. The hacker then owns your child’s account from that point forward and there is no deletion possible as they don’t have the ability to look at admin history or cross validate anything with a parent account. Your parental oversight of a minor has no validity and there is no way for a minor to preset authority to a parent in case of ANY concern. You are opening up your child to anything from porn to hackers and they do not give parents of a minor an ounce of authority or content control in the name of preserving “privacy” of the minor. Other apps allow this - but you have to ask why SnapChat does not? Because it would hurt bottom line? We trust our child - but providing them with access to SnapChat was a mistake. Don’t do it.
