I didn't know that, is that separate from O2 Age Verification?

One and the same thing....?

You can restrict apps and explicit iTunes content via

Settings>general > restrictions.

There's an aweful lot of choice in there and you can set up a separate password to the main log in one.

Be careful not to forget it as there's no reminder service and only way to get around it is to blank the phone and start again.

I often wonder how effective O2 Age Verification is, we get loads of people wanting it removed but I've never known anyone to ask for it, so it doesn't get discussed here.

As Parental Controls aren't available for current Blackberry devices, I believe they offer their own Parental Control App:

Not sure how effective it is though, never spoken to somebody who has used it.

All the info on O2's Parental Controls can be found at www.o2.co.uk/parents

Stuart asked if other phones had the same parental options as was discussed above. I was saying the Blackberry has an app for it.
