I just got a Hack Computer for my daughter and have been fiddling around with the OS and noticed a couple issues.

When changing a Standard User to an Admin, it is possible that the age restrictions get ported over, which results in certain apps not showing up in the App Center for the new Admin. You also can’t tell that the Admin is age restricted from the User settings since the age restriction setting is invisible for Admins. Moreover, the only way I could find to fix this is to log in to a second Admin account, change the problem Admin account to a Standard user, change the age restriction, then change the account back to Admin. This caused me a lot of confusion and troubleshooting to figure out why my Admin account wasn’t showing certain apps.

Many of the apps don’t seem to be properly age rated, making the age restriction functionality not very useful currently. For example, when setting the age restriction to “Teen”, over half the apps disappear including perfectly innocent ones
Thanks for listening to this first time user
