Is GroupMe safe for a 10–12-year-old?

Low risk

Handle with care

Risky for a 10–12-year-old — only with active supervision

GroupMe is rated Low risk in our review. For a 10–12-year-old it can work with the right settings; the main thing to handle is below the app's own minimum age (13+). Younger kids (10–12) can use it under light supervision if the group is known and trusted.
