Child Version of Instagram as Opposition Grows' data-article-id='5885'><script src='//news-app-staging.herokuapp.com/javascripts/getscripts.js'></script><link rel='stylesheet'

child version of its Instagram service.</span> <span data-start-time='9500' data-end-time='27271'>The move comes after major child advocacy groups and U.S. lawmakers urged Facebook to drop its launch plans for the new service, called Instagram Kids.</span> <span data-start-time='27271' data-end-time='36646'>The decision was announced in an online post by Instagram’s chief, Adam Mosseri.</span> <span data-start-time='36646' data-end-time='47375'>Mosseri said company officials still “stand by the need to develop the (Instagram Kids) experience.” </span> <span data-start-time='47375' data-end-time='64042'>However, a delay in the project will give Instagram the chance “to work with parents, experts, policymakers and regulators” on how it should move forward.</span> <span data-start-time='64042' data-end-time='70958'>Facebook announced plans for Instagram Kids in March. </span> <span data-start-time='70958' data-end-time='80833'>Instagram says the application is meant for children between the ages of 10 and 12. </span> <span data-start-time='80833' data-end-time='95146'>The company says while the service is designed for kids, it will contain tools for parents to “supervise and control” their child’s experience.</span> <span data-start-time='95146' data-end-time='104292'>“The reality is that kids are already online,” Mosseri said in his online post. </span> <span data-start-time='104292' data-end-time='119104'>“And we believe that developing age-appropriate experiences designed specifically for them is far better for parents than where we are today.”</span> <span data-start-time='119104' data-end-time='136375'>He added that Instagram Kids aims to cut down on cases of children misrepresenting their age so they can download and use apps meant for people over age 13.</span> <span data-start-time='136375' data-end-time='148104'>Mosseri said kids will need to get parental permission to join the service and it will not contain advertisements. </span> <span data-start-time='148104' data-end-time='159083'>Parents will be able to supervise the time their children spend on the app and control who they can message and follow.</span> <span data-start-time='159083' data-end-time='168708'>But the plans have faced opposition from child advocacy groups and some U.S. lawmakers.</span> <span data-start-time='168708' data-end-time='179458'>In May, a group of 44 U.S. attorneys general wrote to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg. </span> <span data-start-time='179458' data-end-time='186604'>They urged him to cancel the project because it could harm children. </span> <span data-start-time='186604' data-end-time='197229'>The group warned the service could increase cyberbullying and help online predators reach children. </span> <span data-start-time='197229' data-end-time='210313'>It also accused Facebook of not taking necessary steps in the past to safeguard user privacy and protect children.</span>
