Ohio SB167 requires developers of applications likely accessed by children to implement parental controls. These controls must manage child accounts, deliver age-appropriate content, and limit daily usage. Application stores must obtain parental consent before allowing children under 16 to download such applications and provide a mechanism for developers to notify them when an app is likely accessed by children. Manufacturers of devices and operating systems sold in Ohio must estimate the age of primary users.
