The UuLApp idea in one sentence: schools verify who is truly a minor; participating services use that proof to keep adults out of child-only interaction.
This page provides concise language for journalists, researchers and organisations evaluating the project.
What it is
UuLApp is a free child-verification and interaction protocol. Its core is not a social network, game store or replacement internet. The protocol can later support UuLApp learning, alert and support services as separate layers.
Core differentiator
Only a participating school can certify a UuLApp minor credential. The user cannot self-declare themselves into verified child status.
Safety outcome
Participating services use the credential to separate adult and child interaction and to apply verified age-group rules to chat, discovery, matchmaking and related features.
Origin
Developed by LP Development since 2009. The protocol is intended to be free to use; UuLApp intellectual-property rights remain with LP Development.
What UuLApp should not be called.
Not “a social network for children”
Its purpose is to provide a trust layer that social networks can integrate.
Not “an app that monitors children”
The core mechanism is school verification plus service-side interaction control.
Not “a guarantee that every online harm disappears”
The 100% rule refers to school certification of UuLApp minor credentials and the child-only interaction model built on them.
UuLApp is a school-verification protocol that can grow into a verified child-safety, learning, alert and support ecosystem — and its central goal is adoption by the digital services, schools and institutions that shape children’s online lives.
For media purposes, the distinction matters: the protocol solves identity trust first; education, alerts and partner services are staged layers enabled by that trusted network.
Adopt the protocol. Change the default rule for children online.
UuLApp is inviting companies, platforms, schools, public bodies and child-safety organisations to evaluate a common school-verified minor standard so children do not have to depend on self-declared ages in every service they use.
