Mobile software content rating system

Okay kiddo, imagine you have a tablet or a phone, and you want to download a game or an app. But before you can download it, you need to make sure it's appropriate for your age. Just like how you need to ask an adult before you watch a certain movie.

So, to help you and your parents choose the right apps and games for your age, there is something called a mobile software content rating system. It's like a sticker that tells you how old you should be to use the app or game.

The rating system has different categories, like "Everyone" or "Teen." Each category has its own age range, so you and your parents can know what's suitable for you.

Now, you might be wondering, how do they decide what rating to give an app or game? Well, a group of grown-ups called the International Age Rating Coalition (IARC) looks at the content of the app or game and decides which rating it should have.

So, next time you want to download an app or game, make sure you check the rating first. That way you can make sure it's appropriate for your age and you won't get in trouble with your parents!
