### 1/5 — Stinks

*2015-12-30*

I can't browse at all and the shows that are popular don't work for me and neither does YouTube

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2015-06-18*

After latest YouTube updates this app no longer works

### 1/5 — No no no i hate this

*2013-08-20*

Get your app out of the App Store it's horrible

### 1/5 — Needs improvements

*2013-05-13*

This is the worst app ever

### 1/5 — Afful

*2013-02-06*

Appsalute rubbish u can only like get 1 vidio

### 1/5 — Useless

*2012-12-08*

Walled garden for you to pick your flowers in but no substance of consequence.

### 1/5 — Can't select own videos

*2012-11-11*

Not worth it if I can't choose my own videos.

### 1/5 — Firstvideo

*2012-10-29, version 1.0.1*

It's really disappointing

### 2/5 — Good in theory

*2013-01-18*

The idea here is great... In theory. Unfortunately we put a little too much trust in the developer to filter videos and have since had to discuss issues with our children that are not necessarily age appropriate base on things they've seen and heard on some of these videos. Most recently my 8yo watched a cartoon video where one character- upon being subject to another's 'singing'- pulled out a gun and shot himself in the head. This is not "kid friendly" entertainment.

### 2/5 — More Netflix!!!

*2012-10-26*

This app desperately needs more Netflix choices! There are hundreds (if not thousands) of kid-friendly movie and tv choices on Netflix, and we only get an option of ten?! Add more choices, and make it customizable, please!

### 5/5 — Great for younger kids

*2012-11-21*

My 5 year old likes to play videos over and over and now I can let her without worrying.

### 5/5 — A great experience from first launch

*2012-08-23*

This app, along with the ability in the upcoming iOS6 update to disable the home button, are a match made in heaven.  No more worrying about what my young son is getting in to. Love the ability to star specific videos.

How did no one think of something like this app a long time ago? Money very well spent.

### 5/5 — Loving the curated selection

*2012-08-10*

In a world where the internet is become less and less safe for a children its great to have something parents can trust for children's video.

### 4/5 — Free?

*2015-12-13*

Do we have to pay for the videos?

### 3/5 — The guy under me can't spell :)

*2016-01-11*

This app is ok but it needs a few improvements!

### 3/5 — ???=?!

*2013-03-15*

I am having trouble getting the video into my favourites??!! Any suggestions? I know I have to tap and hold the video but it is not working! 123 Smile at me.

### 3/5 — hate it

*2012-08-09, version 1.0*

i wasted my money on some thing that plays 2 Minot videos!!!!:(
