Child account

With a child account, you can control what's available for your child to view in Yandex Browser and protect them from unwanted content.

In a child account:

• Yandex services offer age-appropriate content. You can set age limits in your Family account.

• “Adult” content and sites with obscene language will be completely excluded from search results (even if the search query is explicitly aimed at finding such resources).

• Yandex Music hides songs with obscene language.
• To prevent the child from logging out of the account, logging out requires a code from an SMS that's sent to the parent's phone.

• Incognito mode can't be enabled.

1. Create a family account.

2. Go to the Family page.

3. Tap Create child account.
4. Enter the child's name and date of birth. Tap Next.
5. Create a login and a password for the child account. Tap Next.
6. Enter the code from the SMS that will be sent to the phone linked to your account.
7. Check the account details, select an age limit, and connect a family payment card if necessary. You can also do it later.
8. Tap Finish.

To open the child account, select it when logging in.

You can convert a child account to an adult one. This action must be confirmed from the child account.
