Discord: Apps Kids are on in 2023 That Parents Need to Know About Mostly used as a chat app for gamers, think of it like Teams - for gaming. Kids can have live audio and video chats in a game with their friends.

Most kids will create their own ‘servers’ where they communicate only with their friends, and you have to be invited and accepted to be there. Because of the gaming element - it’s FULL of swearing and can create unacceptable competitive and bullying behaviour.
