So, I can’t make stickers with penises in them for whatever reason (you’d think they’d lump creating/receiving them in the same setting), but the ‘are you sure you want to send or receive something that looks naughty’ was, in fact, turned off by default for me. Anyone else?


This was a "welcome to the new version, let's get started" walkthrough optional setting for me. So the user here turned it on and acts surprised it does what it says?


It’s meant for kids.


The new major OS releases include a version of this feature that you can enable without the parental control context/overhead. So for example if you don't want to see random penises that might get messaged to you, you can avoid seeing that.

It is optional and disabled by default, just like the child-oriented Communication Safety feature set. They call the adult-oriented version "Sensitive Content Warnings".


Stickers are made for kids? No, not at all. Perhaps it's just not your communication style.


Perhaps the default is related to age?
