How to allow access to Android Settings

Turn off Block Device System Settings in the child app if the child needs Wi‑Fi or Bluetooth. That also makes it easier for them to disable protection.

We block Android Settings on many phones because that is how kids turn Safe Lagoon off. The side effect is Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth screens often get blocked too.

On the child phone:

  1. Open the blue Safe Lagoon app (Finn).
  2. Gear (upper right) → parent password.
  3. Turn off Block Device System Settings.

Samsung overlay issues: System settings on Samsung.

If kids keep disabling the app once Settings is open, use Device Owner instead of leaving Settings unlocked.
