Features & Capabilities

BAND for Kids is a private group communication app designed for youth (ages 12 and under) to stay connected with families, sports teams, scout troops, and more. It provides a safe space with parental moderation, and getting started is simple: download the app, sign up with a parent-provided email, and join a private Band invited by a guardian.

Safety and control are central: kids can only join invited groups, parents can monitor activity by joining their child’s Groups, and BAND blocks harassment from strangers, ads, and in-app purchases. Kids can publish posts with attachments and chat within their Bands. The app works on smartphones, tablets, and PCs, and BAND holds SOC 2 and SOC 3 privacy certificates along with ISO/IEC 27001 security certification.

User Reviews

The app is praised for team communication and media sharing, and for a privacy-focused kids version that suits extracurricular groups. However, it faces repeated complaints about credit-card requirements and small charges, login and setup problems, age-based feature limits, feed/navigation issues, and cumbersome group approvals.
Pros
  • Strong for team/club coordination with organization, chat, and media sharing.
  • Privacy-focused kids version with invitation-only groups to limit exposure.
  • Well-suited for extracurricular groups, enabling coach and member communication.
  • Supports sharing photos and videos within groups.
Cons
  • Requires credit card information and small charges (50 cents), leading to trust concerns.
  • Frequent account setup/login problems (wrong birthday, code delivery delays, login failures).
  • Age restrictions (kids must be 13+) and reduced functionality for the kids version.
  • Inconsistent feed access and navigation issues (won’t let me see feed, app hopping).
  • Group approval/verification process can be cumbersome or unnecessary.

Just to for yall information for the 0.50 cents paying, the reason why they make you do that is because it’s to make sure that your a grownup, not a kid

So like this app is really good for like, a lot of stuff like asking when stuff is or how long it will take to do stuff and yatta yatta. But I can’t make a chat. So that pisses me off. And it doesn’t show the group im apart of when I try to make the group!!!😒 PLEASE FIX!!

I had been using it for several months then all the sudden it started to tell there was an error saying TLS and it would not even let me see stuff for dance and it said VPN and that is something that keeps your phone so it makes not sense how it’s a private communication app but it doesn’t let you have a VPN
