How it works

Two apps, one loop: you curate on your phone, your child watches on theirs -- or the family tablet -- and the two stay in sync without you ever touching the second device.

  1. 1

    You curate the channels

    Open the parent app and add the channels you already trust -- the ones you've actually sat and watched with your kid. Most parents land somewhere around a dozen channels, not a hundred. Budget an evening for this first pass, honestly: a good list means watching a few videos from any channel you're unsure about, and checking what else that channel has posted before you add it. It's slower than skipping straight to "done," and it's the whole reason the rest of this works.

  2. 2

    Your child's app plays only those

    Once your list exists, that's the entire catalogue. No related-video rail, no search bar, no channel showing up that you didn't put there yourself. Your child can watch anything on the list, on repeat, for as long as the screen-time limits you set allow -- and nothing outside it.

  3. 3

    You adjust it remotely, any time

    The list lives on our servers, not on the tablet. Found a new channel worth adding? Add it from your phone. A channel's gone stale, or started posting things you don't like? Remove it the same way. The change reaches your child's device on its own -- you never have to find the tablet, unlock it, or interrupt whatever your kid is doing to change what they can watch next.

Setting up the two apps

Kid app

A free download from the App Store that does nothing at all on its own. It has no channels, no settings, and nothing to explore -- until it's paired to a parent's account, it's just a locked front door.

Parent app

Where the subscription lives, and where you curate the channel list, set screen-time limits, and generate a pairing code for each device you want to link.

To connect them: open the parent app, generate a pairing code for the device you're setting up, then enter that code inside the kid app on your child's device. That's the entire setup -- from that point on, the kid app just plays whatever's on the list you built, and stays paired until you remove the device yourself.
