The company is also testing a suite of parental controls that would allow for increased oversight of Discord\u2019s youngest users, TechCrunch has learned and Discord confirmed. In a live test running in Discord\u2019s iOS app in the U.S., the company introduced a new \u201cFamily Center\u201d feature, where parents will be able to configure tools that allow them to see the names and avatars of their teen\u2019s recently added friends, the servers the teen has joined or participated in and the names and avatars of users they\u2019ve directly messaged or engaged with in group chats.<\/p>\n However, Discord clarifies in an informational screen, parents will not be able to view the content of their teen\u2019s messages or calls in order to respect their privacy.<\/p>\n This approach, which toes a fine line between the need for parental oversight and a minor\u2019s right to privacy, is similar to how Snapchat implemented parental controls<\/a> in its app last year. Like Discord\u2019s system, Snapchat only allows parents insights into who their teen is talking to and friending, not what they\u2019ve typed or the media they\u2019ve shared.<\/p>\n Users who are part of the Discord test will see the new Family Center hub linked under the app\u2019s User Settings section, below the Privacy & Safety and Profiles sections. From here, parents are able to read an overview of the Family Center features and click a button to \u201cGet Started\u201d when they\u2019re ready to set things up.<\/p>\n
