Google正把面向安卓应用的年龄识别工具推向更多市场。按照最新安排,这项名为 Play Signal API 的功能将先在 8 月中旬进入澳大利亚和加拿大,并在年底前扩展至全球。

监管压力推动扩展

这项工具此前已在巴西上线。Google希望开发者据此识别应用中的低龄用户,并提供更适合年龄段的内容和使用体验。此举也与全球多地对未成年人上网保护的监管要求升温有关。

近一段时间,多个市场的立法机构和监管部门持续要求应用商店加强对未成年人的保护。苹果也在今年 2 月面向全球推出年龄验证工具,以应对不断增加的相关法律要求。

不直接提供生日信息

根据 Google 的设计,开发者获取的是用户年龄区间,而不是具体生日等个人资料。家长可以把孩子的年龄范围共享给应用,成年人在开发者发起提示时,也可以主动共享自己的年龄信息。

Google称,这种方式可以让应用在不掌握敏感身份信息的情况下,调整内容展示和功能体验,以适配不同年龄段用户。

Family Link统一管理

在操作方式上,家长不需要逐个应用设置共享权限。Google把相关控制集中放入 Family Link 家长控制面板,家长完成设置后,接入该功能的开发者即可读取相应年龄区间信号。

这项功能也将与 Google Play 现有的未成年人保护工具配合使用,包括限制儿童发现某些应用的能力。家长仍可通过 Family Link 管理屏幕使用时长、审批应用下载,并为特定应用设置基于 PIN 码的内容过滤。
