About this app

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

Help your kids grow at their own pace
Your kids are unique, so they should only see content 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 kids learn their ABCs, nurture their curiosity, and more in the Preschool mode.
- Expand your kids interests to songs, cartoons, or DIY crafts in Younger mode.
- Give your older kids the freedom to search popular music and gaming videos in Older mode.
- Or hand-pick the videos, channels, and collections your kids can see in Approved Content Only mode.

Rewatch videos and bond over favourites
Quickly find your kids’ favorite videos and the content you’ve shared with them in the Watch it Again tab.

Shape your kids’ viewing experience with Parental Controls
Parental Control features help you limit what your kids 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 kids to take a break in between exploring content. Use the Timer feature to freeze the app when screen time is up so your kids can apply their new skills to the real world.

Nice app, one can control watching limits and also the contents. For the safety purpose of our kids we can rewatch the videos what contents they are watching and get rid of that, even one can block any channel to view and limit the time for the whole day, I give it to my kid without any hesitation. I've tried many options but this one is best to get rid of the addiction from watching mobile for too long. Thanks to YouTube kids for making such a safe platform for kids, keep growing up, lots of ❤️

It's okay. A better option than the regular YouTube app but still has a lot of content that I feel is inappropriate. It also seems to push girl/female content to my son's account. So it's still a constant battle to make sure he is watching appropriate content.

The YouTube Kids app is awful and doesn't show anything good. I understand it's for kids, but sometimes it even shows inappropriate content. Plus, it doesn't show anything good. And it's a kids' app, so how can its voice feature show other things when some kids can't even type? YouTube Kids is terrible.
