Oh my, this is all a bit overwhelming for me! I’ve been worried about my grandchildren’s online safety, especially my teenage grandson who’s always on his phone.

Alex, thank you for that detailed information - though I’ll admit some of it went over my head a bit! What’s a “jailbreak” and why would it void the warranty? That sounds concerning.

Nooneshere, you mentioned Apple Family Sharing and Screen Time - are those built into the iPhone already? That sounds like it might be easier for someone like me who isn’t very tech-savvy. Would my grandson know if I set those up? I don’t want him to feel like I’m spying on him, but I just want to make sure he’s safe online.

I appreciate everyone’s patience with my questions!
