Kids and WP

So my two year old took my phone for no more than ten seconds and from Start screen managed to reformat my SD card.. Photos, videos, apps, music..

That a bummer did you put your child on kid corner?

My guess would be no.

Over the weekend I was around a very grabby child and basically had to sit on my phone to avoid them getting it. This particular child has a fascination with throwing things around... My L920 already has a small crack.

Not this time, he grabbed it while on start screen. Wouldn't have made much difference though, Kid Corner was great until he figured out how to get out of it and back into where the real fun is!

We try to keep our phones out of sight of them but if it's left for a moment they will get it lol Usually I'll find him with it and he's went to the app list and opened Disney junior app and is watching videos.. Not this time!

I thought kids corner was password protected. I guess I was wrong. Good thing I don't have to worry about that.

Maybe get them a used L520 to play with. I'm guessing they're cheap enough.

I'll need to check out there a password setting for it. He quickly figured out what the lock button did and how it let him get into the phone. Even pouring it on flight mode didn't work cos when he goes to make calls in flight mode he just taps the prompt to exit flight mode!

Keep your phone in the car on in the bag. It's the only way really. Kids can bypass all sorts of security somehow.
