What is Child Mode?
Child Mode simplifies the Space interface for participants by limiting access to certain tools and features.
When enabled, participants see a cleaner workspace with only essential tools, while hosts retain full control.
Participants will:
See a simplified toolbar (draw, erase, move, undo/redo)
Have limited video call controls (mic and camera only)
Be unable to access panels like chat, boards, or apps
Hosts will:
Continue to have full access to all tools and controls
Be able to turn Child Mode on or off at any time
