Age suitability

What's in My Proper Home, who it's for, and why we rate it 4+.

Last updated 31 May 2026

My Proper Home is a tool for buying, selling and tracking a UK property purchase. It's designed for adults — typically homebuyers, sellers, landlords and estate agents — but the app contains no objectionable material, so it is rated 4+ on the App Store and is suitable for any age.

Our age rating

  • Apple App Store: 4+ (lowest available rating — no restricted content).
  • Practical audience: 18+. Buying or selling property is a legal contract, and you must be a UK resident over 18 to complete one. We don't restrict who can view the app, but the workflows are written for adults handling their own move.

What the app contains

  • Property listings (photos, prices, descriptions) sourced from the seller or estate agent.
  • Tools for tracking the conveyancing chain — solicitor progress, mortgage status, completion dates, documents.
  • Direct messaging between members of the same property chain (e.g. the buyer, seller, agent and solicitor on one purchase).
  • Map and address search powered by Apple Maps and the UK Land Registry.
  • A directory of vetted removals firms, professional services, surveyors, conveyancers and mortgage brokers.

What the app does NOT contain

  • No gambling, betting or simulated gambling.
  • No violence, gore or mature graphic content.
  • No sexual content, nudity or romantic content.
  • No alcohol, tobacco or drug content.
  • No horror or fear-inducing themes.
  • No public / stranger-to-stranger chat. Messaging is scoped to members of a specific property chain you've explicitly joined.
  • No user-generated content visible to a public audience — photos uploaded to a listing are visible only to participants of that chain (and, for public listings, to people browsing that specific listing).
  • No third-party advertising or marketing trackers.
  • No loot boxes, virtual currency or randomised purchases.

Privacy and parental guidance

Although the app is rated 4+, it is a real-world transactional tool that handles personal data (address history, identification documents for AML checks, financial details about a mortgage). A child should not be using My Proper Home to complete a property purchase. If a child has access to a parent's device, we recommend:

  • Using the iOS device's Screen Time controls or App Lock features rather than relying on the app's content rating.
  • Signing out of the My Proper Home account when not in use — biometric unlock can be enabled in Settings → App lockso re-entry requires Face ID / Touch ID.
  • Reviewing our privacy policy for what personal data we collect and why.
