About this app

Inspire your children to uncover their unique interests
Help your children explore video content that they love and that parents trust, in an app made just for children. With easy navigation tools and a suite of features, you can help your children spend time online uncovering new interests, unleashing their imagination and building their confidence in their own unique world.

Help your children grow at their own pace
Your children are unique, so they should only see content that they're ready to explore. Decide what videos will help them make the most of their time online, then personalise individual profiles using custom content filters as they grow.

– Help your youngest children learn their ABCs, nurture their curiosity and more in 'Preschool' mode.
– Expand your children's interests to songs, cartoons or DIY crafts in 'Younger' mode.
– Give your older children the freedom to search popular music and gaming videos in 'Older' mode.
– Or, hand-pick the videos, channels and collections that your children can see in 'Approved content only' mode.

Rewatch videos and bond over favourites
Quickly find your children's favourite videos and the content that you've shared with them in the 'Watch it again' tab.

Shape your children's viewing experience with parental controls
Parental control features help you limit what your children watch, and better guide their viewing experience. Our blocking process aims to help keep videos on YouTube Kids family-friendly and safe – but each family's preferences are unique. Don't like a video or channel, or see inappropriate content? Flag it for our team to review.

Set a screen-time limit
Encourage your children to take a break in between exploring content. Use the 'Timer' feature to freeze the app when screen time is up so that your children can apply their new skills to the real world.

I used to use this app, but I mean, I still use it even though I'm 7 it's super cool and it's better than the other one because it keeps. It's very hard to. Get verified. And I hate how the way that the other one. Freezing, and also I didn't more. I hate the other one more. But this one is super good because that if you're going. Do you snowboard or anything or anything Gore or April prayed the other YouTube's is really dumb because it doesn't even delete the pool prayer stuff

It could be better but it's fine once you find the right settings. My tip is to ONLY let kids watch channels you approve. Yes that's an option, kind of hidden! It will say on their home screen "approved for you" so they cannot see any other content from the algorithm nor get recommendations!!!! You can also share new channels directly to their profile from your own YT account. It is however annoying to login to your YT account, always asks me password even though I have biometrics enabled -_-

Decent, but needs some improvement. It's nice to have more control of what my child sees on YouTube. The parental controls are good. The video controls are lacking; rewind is a 10 second rewind, there is no option to start from the beginning. If you go back to watch a video that you had already watched halfway,you have to watch from the last watched part. The select highlight on the tv is white on pale blue, it is not easy to see.
