App Overview

Heads Up! is a party game app developed by Ellen DeGeneres and Warner Bros. It is a word guessing game where players hold the phone to their forehead, with the screen facing out, and other players give them clues to try to get them to guess what word is displayed on the screen.

In general, the app is considered safe for kids. However, parents should be aware of the following potential issues:

In-app purchases: The app offers various in-app purchases, such as more decks and customization options, which can add up quickly.

Sharing personal information: While the app does not require any personal information, players can choose to share their high scores on social media. Parents should educate their kids on the importance of online privacy and not sharing personal information with strangers.

Advertising: The app may contain advertisements for other apps, games, and products, which kids may be exposed to.

Overall, Heads Up! is a fun and lighthearted game that can be enjoyed by kids and adults alike. Parents should monitor their kids' usage of the app and educate them on safe and responsible app usage.

How Bark Helps with Heads Up!

Bark lets you choose precisely how and when your child will use Heads Up! on their device — down to the exact minute. Set daily time limits or follow a schedule. This could look like “no Heads Up! during the school day” or “only 2 hours a day”

When it comes to online safety, Bark also lets you block websites and apps, create screen time schedules, and track location when your kid is out and about.
