LeapFrog LEAPPAD Platinum 31565 Parent Manual & Instructions

Parent Settings 

Control your child’s play with these interactive LEAPPAD™ 

Platinum tablet features: 

•  Wireless settings — Control connection setup and access to LeapFrog-defi ned 

online experiences.

•  Child profi le — Easily manage permissions and profi le information or add a 

new profi le.

•  Peer-to-peer settings — Control how your child plays with other children 

when two wireless LEAPPAD™ tablets are in close proximity to one another 

via local ad hoc Wi-Fi network. (See Local Communications below for 

more information.)

•  App Center/Centre — Parents can purchase digital content directly from the 

device with a Parent Account password. Control your child’s access to the App 

Center/Centre, where they can watch trailers and create a wish list. Parents 

can choose whether children may view pricing and buy buttons.

•  Time Management — Control the amount of time your child spends on 

the device.

•  Device Settings — Manage settings like language, time, date and more.

Access to Parent Settings is protected by a 4-digit parent lock code that must be 

established during initial setup. Parent Settings can be accessed from the Sign-In

 screen by pressing the Parent Settings icon to log in with your parent lock. 

Alternatively, you can log in via the Settings icon on the Home Bar of the child’s 

Home Screen.

Forgetting or resetting your Parent Lock

If you have forgotten your 4-digit parent lock code you can look it up in the 

leapfrog.com Parent Account you created during device setup and registration. If you 

need to reset your parent lock, you can do it from the device or reference the FAQ 

section at leapfrog.com/support/leappadplatinum for more information. 

Local Communications 

Peer-to-peer gameplay uses limited communication features to permit direct 

connections between two wireless LEAPPAD™ tablets that are in close proximity 

to one another, using a local Wi-Fi ad hoc network. Your child is not playing on 

the Internet. Instead, peer-to-peer enabled LEAPPAD tablets use local Wi-Fi 

connections like an antenna – allowing play between LEAPPAD tablets that are 

near each other (for example, within 100 feet/approx. 30 metres unobstructed or 

less, depending on the strength of the local network – obstructions such as walls 

can signifi cantly reduce the operating range). Both users must own copies of the 

same game in order to play together. Some peer-to-peer games allow users to 

share information with and receive information from the other player. The peer-

to-peer feature can be activated or disabled using the Parent Settings screen on 

the tablet.
