    What is the right age to get a child a phone?

    This summer, mobile phone provider EE launched its own age guidance for smartphone use in a drive to improve children’s digital wellbeing.

    Mat Sears, Corporate Affairs Director for EE added: “While technology and connectivity have the power to transform lives, we recognise the growing complexity of smartphones can be challenging for parents and care givers.

    “They need support, which is why we are launching new guidelines on smartphone usage for under 11s, 11–13-year-olds, and 13 -16-year-olds to help them make the best choices for their children through these formative years.”

    EE recommends that kids under 11 should use non-smart devices with limited capabilities, such as feature phones (dumb phones), which will allow them to make and receive texts and calls, but restrict access to social media and inappropriate content.

    For children aged 11-13, EE advises that if a smartphone is to be used, they should have parental controls enabled, as well as a family-sharing app in place such as Google Family Link or Apple Family Sharing, whi
