    Most of the differences are because the Android UI is bad. Actually all the PC controls exist if you plug in a keyboard and mouse, but, I never made friendly UIs for most of it. The simulation code is generally the same between both versions.

    jacob1: why does android have differences from the computer is it because some things can only be added on computer

    So basically in that case, on parental-control restricted devices, those APIs should be good enough to know if we need to restrict certain activity. I won't restrict uploading saves but would consider blocking direct user interaction for users < 13

    I can guarantee nobody will ever have to send a picture of their ID to play TPT. Because I value pricacy and also because we're too small to afford doing that. I would consider using OS-provided age signals though. Android will have an API soon to let us know the age of the person using the app. Desktop OSs might have it sometime next year. That data is user provided, if parental controls are in place it would be accurate enough.

    Yeah. Nothing that affects us so far but I'm keeping an eye on those.

    jacob1: I'm pretty sure a weird law is going global for age verification affecting games like minecraft

    Why should I add age verification to TPT? I plan to follow any applicable laws, but we aren't a social media company and also can't afford any age verification solutions.
