YouTube is an online video streaming platform with all kinds of video content to watch for free. Launched in 2005, Google has decided to split the contents for kids and mature members. So they launched YouTube Kids in 2019, a dedicated app for kids. It is entirely for kids, and only kids’ content is available to stream on the app. Apart from smartphones, the YouTube Kids app is also available for smart TVs and media streaming devices like Firestick and Chromecast with Google TV. It will help the kids to experience their favorite videos on bigger screens.
- The app contains only Kids friendly content, which keeps them entertaining for a long time.
- As a parent, you can disable the search feature so that your kids can only watch the videos you have selected.
- The app advertisements are only related to kids and support creating multiple kids’ profiles (currently not supported in Google TV).
- Watch 24×7 in HD or Full HD on your TV with a Google TV device.
