Likee is a video-sharing app similar to TikTok — and much more dangerous.

Think of BeReal as the anti-Instagram. It's all about authenticity.

GroupMe is a popular group chat platform for sports teams, study groups, and more.

Yubo is a social media app that lets kids make friends with strangers, play games, and even video chat together.

Twitter may be popular, but it's definitely not always safe for kids.

So, is Telegram safe? Telegram is a popular free messaging app used by hundreds of millions of users worldwide. It’s similar in look and feel to WhatsApp, which, in turn, is pretty similar to a phone’s native texting and calling app. Telegram goes a step further, though, and adds the group chat functionality of apps like Discord or GroupMe — you can join enormous groups of people of up to 200,000 users.

Just when you thought Snapchat couldn’t get any more dangerous for kids, along comes the Sendit app! Sendit is an add-on app for Snapchat that lets users ask questions and get anonymous answers, as well as play augmented reality games.
