Make Apple TV safer for young gamers

Ensure children play safe by restricting who and what they can engage with

Allow or block nearby multiplayer

Some games have a local multiplayer option letting players connect over the same Wi-fi network or within Bluetooth range. Decide if you want to allow this. You’ll need tvos 14.

Disallow private messaging

For peace of mind, parents may decide it’s best to block private messaging. It’ll prevent user-inputted text from being sent and received. Again, you’ll need tvos 14.

Prevent profile privacy changes

Another tvos 14 addition, Apple TV allows you to block any attempt to change your profile privacy and you can also prevent the changing of avatars and nicknames.

Playing multiplayer games

Aside from disallowing access to multiplayer games, you can limit who users can play with by only letting them enjoy titles with friends.
