Overview of Parental Controls

Simple-to-use parental controls help create a “kid-safe” experience on your NOOK. Using parental controls, you can limit the types of content that child profiles can view and purchase. You set up parental controls when you create a child profile. You can adjust them later if you like by editing the child profile.

Tip: You can access controls for profiles at any time from the NOOK Shop or Library.

Using parental controls, you can control whether or not a specific child profile can:

•Browse the NOOK Shop

•Purchase from NOOK Shop only when using your NOOK account password

•Shop only for kids’ content in the NOOK Shop

•Access Reads for kids

Note: NOOK parental controls do not control non-NOOK apps, such as apps in the Google Play store.

To view the parental controls for a child profile:

1.From a Home screen, tap Apps > NOOK Settings.

2.Tap Profile, and tap the profile you want to edit.

3.Tap Edit > Manage content > Parental controls.

Note: You must first set up a child profile before you can manage its parental controls.
