My daughter was talking with a friend over iMessage. They were like playing a game where they search all emojis with a certain color. When she tried to send the message in this picture, the iPhone rejected, with the alert saying she was sending a nude. There’s nothing there, only emojis. What could’ve triggered the warning?

    The phone protect kids from sending nudes. (AFAIK it happens on the phone, not on a server). The phone has a series of protections for kids. She can’t message someone I don’t approve, no message or call from people not on the contact list can enter. But still, someone could grab her friend’s phone and ask for nudes. In this particular case, I entered my parent code and the message was sent. I fail to see how this is bad.

      That entire context was missing in your post: you have parental controls activated aka you opted into scanning.

      The post was presented as if your daughter just had a normal iPhone + not everybody uses an iPhone. You can’t expect people to know that the feature exists + that it’s activated on your daughters phone. I read daughter and thought she was an adult.
