A great idea, really, but RichyRoo is right. It needs to have better security to go back to “adult” mode. And M C, the black screen is on the settings page, not “kids corner.” As is clearly shown on the screen shot, “kids corner” has a pretty picture for the wallpaper, then the colored icons.

If they do that, then they won’t be able to use the phone at all because it’ll ask for the password, which you (the adult) will/should only know, so they’ll have to bring the phone back to you to get back on kid’s corner.

good idea, but if all you need to do to exit the mode is hit the power button my 2 year old will figure it out in about 5 minutes. They need something more robust to keep the kids in their corner.

nothing like a stark black to entice the impressionable mind of a child.
