Next, we will configure the permissions that FYI play will require to properly operate, followed by visual illustration soft he required configuration (follow the instructions below or configure your device equivalently if the configuration looks very different).

Step 2 -Setting the permissions

Media capture

FYI play needs permission to capture your child’s activity in order to analyse the content and alert you of potentially harmful activity. Give FYI play the permission to start capturing your child’s activity on their device.

Background execution

Allow FYI play to run in the background. FYI play requires this permission so that it can continue to capture activity when other applications are being used in the foreground. This also allows FYI play to automatically restart itself when the Android operating system requires it to do so.

Usage permissions

FYI play needs information about the app’s usage in order to ensure it remains active and appropriately capture activity and content. It is safe to “Accept” the any warning and allow FYI play to do so.
