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?

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.

Like that so far, it only shows appropriate videos for kids. Not user-friendly with swipe controls. Trying to exit app on my pixel 8 is a nightmare. I usually just end up scrubbing the timeline of the player or returning to the pick a video screen. Also, you can't download hand-picked videos. The app will download what it wants when It wants with no way to change it.

Very annoying for kids to navigate. I have search disabled, and approved a few channels. instead of just letting them click on channel profiles it throws a bunch of random videos on a page they have to endlessly scroll. I can't get to specific creators. for example if I approve baby panda, blippie, and level up: blippie may never show..it's just lost in a garbled mess of panda and level up. Nice that I can block unwanted content but otherwise horrible.

YouTube Kids is great for preschoolers. My 4yr LOVES this app. it only shows videos that are right for my son using filters to keep out all the bad stuff. I set a timer for how long hes on it otherwise he'll stay on it all day if he could. He can navigate his way around the App all by himself it has lots of shows and videos that are fun and educational. there are no comments sections or live chats so your kids can't talk to people they don't know. I Highly recommend 😊
