How Ping works

Ping is designed around one simple idea:

Parents stay in control. Kids stay connected.

Parents set everything up

Create your family account, add your child, and choose what's allowed — from contacts to messaging features.

Kids chat only with approved contacts

Children can only message people you've approved. No public profiles. No random messages.

Friends connect safely, in person

Kids add friends by scanning a QR code in person — with optional parental approval for every new connection.

Built for Parents. Loved by Kids.

For parents

  • Approve and manage all contacts
  • Control features like voice, video, and stickers
  • Remove access or disable accounts anytime
  • Made by parents, for parents

For kids

  • Simple, friendly design
  • Fun avatars and reactions
  • No ads, no algorithms, no strangers
  • Works on phones and tablets

Why Choose Ping?

Parent-Approved Contacts
