Age Suitability

Every app we've released so far is made for teens and adults, 13 and older. This page explains what that means, what you will and won't find in our apps, and what's worth knowing about particular apps.

Made for 13 and Older

We set every store listing to match: in the App Store the age rating is 13+, and on Google Play the target audience is 13 and older. Google Play also shows a content rating from the IARC questionnaire, which can differ by country, so check each app's store listing for the rating where you live. Our games' online features (leaderboards and friends, through DDAP Sigil) show the gamertags other players choose, and a Sigil is for people 13 and older, or older where the law requires it.

What You Won't Find in Our Apps

• Advertising of any kind
• Selling your data, or tracking you across other apps and websites
• Chat or messages between players (friends are added by code, and nothing else is sent between players)
• Gambling, betting or loot boxes
• Graphic violence or sexual content in what we make

Online Features

DDAP Sigil is optional: every game can be played without one, though leaderboards, friends and other online features need it. The only thing a player writes that others can see is their gamertag. Gamertags are filtered, which reduces the chance of an offensive name but can't catch every one, and anyone can report or block a player from a leaderboard; a person reviews every report. The DDAP Sigil Rules and our Privacy Policy explain the rest.

Notes on Particular Apps

Glyphicon. Glyphicon is a dictionary and word tool, and a real dictionary includes vulgar and offensive words. A setting, Filter offensive words, is on by default. It keeps those words out of the results of the word-game helpers, the Word Finder and the Commonness Explorer, and the Word of the Day, flashcards, quizzes and starter guesses always leave them out. The dictionary and thesaurus are not filtered: look up such a word and Glyphicon will define it, as any dictionary would. The filter is an ordinary setting, not a parental lock: anyone using the device can turn it off in Settings.

Hebrew Flash and Forty Nine Days. These teach from the Jewish tradition: Biblical Hebrew, and the counting of the Omer with readings from Kabbalah.

Aevora Reporter. Aevora Reporter organizes health readings and shares reports with people you choose. It deals with health information and does not give medical advice.

For Parents and Guardians

• Your device's own controls (Screen Time on iPhone, iPad and Mac, and Family Link on Android) can limit which apps a young person uses, for how long, and whether they can buy anything.
• Every game is free. A few of our other apps are paid or offer optional purchases, always through the App Store or Google Play, where those controls apply.
• A game's online features need a DDAP Sigil, which a player creates in the app. It can be deleted from inside any game at any time, or by email; see how to delete a Sigil.
