What is Locket?
Locket Widget puts your friends' selfies as a tile on your phone's home screen, updating whenever they take a new photo.
How does Locket work?
Install the widget, add up to 20 friends, share selfies that automatically appear on their home screens. No feed, just the widget.
What parents need to know
- Limited social design is positive — but content is unmoderated.
- Friends can send anything; it lands on your child's home screen.
- Lockets capture a lot of bedroom/bathroom shots given how easy posting is.
Serious risks & safety concerns
Unmoderated home-screen content
Whatever a friend takes shows up on your child's home screen — including suggestive or accidental photos.
Parental controls available
No parental controls beyond manual friend pruning.
