## Description

Stars Messenger Kids Safe Chat is a private, safe, and free messaging and video chat app for kids and all ages. Connect using a unique Friend Code and a friend’s username—no phone number required, no ads, and no strangers. You can reset your Friend Code to control who can connect, and group chats use a separate group code. Optional Parent View lets you see who your child is messaging, the groups they’re in, and their activity in real time.

Features include customizable message styles, emojis, group video calls, and quick one-tap messages. You can share photos, videos, and audio, create private group chats, and enjoy cross-device support. The app promises a 100% safe, private, phishing- and spam-free environment with no ads and a resettable friend code for added privacy.
