A new feature in Spotify's dedicated kids app lets parents exercise greater control over their children's listening habits. The streaming giant says that two new features will now allow parents to view their kids' listening history and also block specific content that they may find objectionable. To use the new tools, parents who have purchased Spotify Kids can navigate to settings in their own apps and select the 'Grown Ups' option. It's still somewhat unclear exactly how Spotify sees the feature being used, however, given the fact that Spotify Kids is designed to weed out objectionable content to begin with through human curation. Among the differences between Spotify's kids app and its regular music-streaming service are the data collection practices.
