New app reviewA new app deserves a conversation.
Choose what happens when a new Android app appears: allow it, get notified or hold use until a parent reviews it.

A newly installed game waits for your decision while the child’s other approved apps keep their existing rules.
Make it part of the routine.

What to know before you start
Android only and post-install. This does not prevent a store download or approve a purchase. iOS cannot provide the same installed-app review list.
Check device support →Does this stop the app from being installed?
No. Hold for review limits use after installation on supported Android devices. Store purchase approvals are separate.
Works better together.
