Reviews for YouTube Kids

This is the best app! It has cool videos and cool channels, but no Arimura Taishi or Makennah or klaskyklaskyklaskyklasky gummy bear song version, so I can make video-editing with it because I have capcut. I still love this better than youtube! update: Can you stop focusing on educational and focus more on entertainment? I […]

I find this app completely unusable with functionality so limited I can’t figure it out! After installation, I selected only a handful of videos and 1 channel. I had to go into my regular YTube to find the others. But now I can no longer add more vids to the home screen. ALSO I can […]

It is useful with a lot of useless ads for kids. 1. I hope one day I can block certain users as the content of their videos is misleading. 2. It gets disabled on my honor x6 phone on a daily basis. Please make changes in this regard, if possible, in your future versions. Thanks. […]

I really like YouTube kids and it’s parental control features, though I do need to put in more time tweaking it. We started using it when our kid was 2, and they’re almost 5 now. You really need to pay attention. I was surprised that watching people play games like Minecraft and Roblox was viewable […]

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 […]

It’s fine with it works but frequently it’ll cause my kids to meltdown. Sometimes it’ll reset and I’ll have to set it up again. Other times it’ll randomly delete all their downloaded videos. We often use this app in the car and when they don’t have downloaded videos, they get upset because they can’t watch […]

I’m giving a one star review because I want YouTube to know that calling this app “kid friendly” is an absolute joke. I understand that it doesn’t show explicit content, but that doesn’t mean it is a shield from the internet. There are videos on there that show things that are provocative, massive amounts of […]

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 […]

while it’s easier to use and safer for kids, there are way more ads. In the morning there is an ad after every video. There are still a lot of videos where the title is in another language. I wish I could customize to only English videos for my 1 year old. There are still […]

Frustrated. I never had an account until today. My little is 2, and haven’t had any issues. New issue, even after update, I don’t know how it started, but I made an account. Now I can’t cast to our Chromecast. It started on her tablet. I signed into her account from my phone (to see […]

Unable to enter my birth year on lock screen. When I press on the data entry points, no keypad appears, so I can’t enter my birth year. Unable to activate app. Edit: it turns out that the data entry keypad is only visible in landscape mode. This is a terrible user interface, there is no […]

I agree with everyone else there needs be more filters so I can control what they watch. The new “Approved Content Only” is a joke. I spent an hour looking through and approving channels, but after my daughter watched it for a little while all but 3 videos disappeared. I think its because it will […]

Too simple, all I want to do is subscribe to a handfull of channels and let that be the YouTube they can watch. I’m trying to choose only educational channels and documentaries which doesn’t seem at all possible. Ideally, I’d like it to look like YouTube normally, but it shows “kid” and educational content only. […]

Perfect app. Intuitive to use for little kids, and super easy to manage for parents. I was having so much trouble getting Amazon kids to work for my 2yr old for long car trips, then i found this. I just pin the app and he can easily navigate without getting stuck. I use the mode […]

Non-intuitive interfaces, bouncing between URLs and the app. And gosh forbid, if you forget your password while you are already logged into the app. Good luck. Apparently I have to go between the app and the website to try to figure out how to reconnect things, including the television. And the parental controls are almost […]

So easy to use! My 2 year old is able to work it by himself! I love how I am able to block certain shows and channels I don’t want him watching and it shows only age appropriate videos! You can also view what they have been watching. I also live how there are very […]

I have the app on both my phone and our smart TV. It is a great collection of kids videos for all ages. I do have a suggestions. For phone, it is simple to slide the bar back to the beginning, but I’d like to see a restart or start from beginning button for TV […]

My kiddos do not get much screen time (and that’s not judging those who do). I downloaded this for a dance recital rehearsal to go along with activity bags I made for the girls. Seven and half hours is a long time for kids to sit in between numbers and waiting their turn so I […]

Love this for my 4 and 8 year olds. Has settings for parental controls (time limits, video types, history, ect) and I can easily set a pass code and timer. Also, you sign in with your YouTube account, but nothing on there goes into your history. Great app. Would like for there to be a […]

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 […]
