About this app

Instead of exposing children to unpredictable algorithms, VidCove allows parents to approve trusted YouTube channels and personal Plex libraries, creating a calm, curated viewing experience.

With VidCove, parents can:

• Approve specific YouTube channels per child
• Block YouTube Shorts
• Enable per-video approval (Strict Mode)
• Monitor viewing activity
• Connect a personal Plex server to share family movies and shows
• Preview exactly what their child sees

Children only see the content you choose.
No algorithm. No rabbit holes. No unexpected recommendations.

VidCove does not host or distribute media. YouTube content is accessed via the official YouTube API and embedded player. Plex content streams from user-owned or authorized servers.

Built for families who want intentional screen time.
