What is Baby Mode?
'Baby Mode' is a Chrome extension designed to help parents work uninterruptedly without compromising their babies' engagement. By disabling the keyboard and adding interactive learning sounds, it helps babies learn and play while the parent stays productive. Ideal for preventing babies, cats, or other pets from causing any unwanted keyboard-related distractions.

Summary

Baby Mode makes your browser baby friendly by allowing you to work and your baby to stay engaged.

Baby Mode works by disabling your keyboard (but not your mouse) and adding sounds; letter pronunciation, animal, drum set, etc, to help your baby learn. You will be able to relax and get work done as your baby types on your keyboard.

Baby Mode can also work with cats or any other unwanted distractions you want away from your keyboard

This app runs a background script that fetches your location data and randomly pops up targeted ads. Too bad, too, because I have a 10 month old that loves to help me with my work and something like this would have been great. You know, minus the gross breach of privacy.

there are no noises, it doesnt disable the keyboard, and there is no keyboard drumset no matter how much times I turn it on

Disables the keyboard but there are none of the sounds people here are talking about.
