Mainstream video apps are built to keep anyone watching — including a four-year-old. KidsTube is built the other way around: a small, calm space where parents decide what's on, and the app helps kids stop, not scroll.
Strict shows only channels you've approved. Flexible adds filtered search & discovery on top, so older kids can explore within the guardrails you set.
Set an age and videos rated above it are hidden automatically — a sensible baseline before you tune anything else.
Approve channels one by one, block channels by keyword, and keep a manual blocked-channels list. You decide exactly what's watchable.
Keyword filters on titles, a video-length filter, and a language preference — so what surfaces is actually right for your child.
A daily limit, a per-session limit, and a break duration between sessions. Hard stops, set in minutes — not a gentle nudge.
Children can request a channel and search safely; nothing new gets through until you say yes.
Review watch history and a weekly summary, so you always know what your child has been watching.
KidsTube is being built and tested now by Groei BV, and is on its way to the App Store. It's part of a small family of products we design, build and publish ourselves.
