But there are two things that could be cool if they fixed them, first I wish I could scroll on YouTube shorts instead of having to click on them, Also if parents could make your screen time longer without having to pay. Thanks for reading my reply and its ok if you can’t get the time to read this :) ### 3/5 — Great but.. *2026-07-19, version 52.17* It is great, an awesome app to protect children from the unsafe things, but it is very hard and confusing to use, it’s easy to sign in, but it’s not the same as YouTube, where you can scroll or search up things easy I would love it if they could fix that ### 3/5 — Thank you *2026-07-05, version 52.17* 4updateupgrade$xx ### 3/5 — No option to add app to TV *2026-06-30, version 52.17* Samsung tv plus doesn’t have this as an app, which defeats the purpose of it being for kids to watch select YouTube content. Please allow Samsung tv plus to have your app! ### 4/5 — Love this app *2026-06-26, version 52.17* I wish it worked on Apple TV but otherwise no complaints ### 5/5 — Absolutely perfect! *2026-06-10, version 52.17* This is the only way I feel comfortable letting my kids watch YouTube videos. I can handpick which channels and/or videos they have access to. Worth every penny for my peace of mind! I have heard horror stories about what kids have seen on YouTube Kids. Predators are sick and they intentionally embed inappropriate or scary content into seemingly harmless kid’s shows in order to desensitize them and groom them. It is diabolical. ### 5/5 — AMAZING 🤩 *2026-06-01, version 52.17* This app is so fun and I wish they make a new one so we can watch anything I want and make it safe.😝😉🤗🙏🥺🩷 ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-05-31, version 52.17* No more commercials No more sketchy suggested videos If I like a channel and not a video I can block a specific video No complaints Worth the money for peace of mind. ### 5/5 — Best investment *2026-05-29, version 52.17* Worth every penny yo actually be in control of what my children consume on the Tube 😉 thank you for building such an incredible platform for caring parents! ### 5/5 — Best kids safety app ever! *2026-05-25, version 52.17* I truly cannot say enough good things about this app. It has transformed our digital life. My son is AuDHD and watching videos can be a great way to decompress when he needs to be by himself. Before this app I was constantly stressing and trying to find ways to make YT safer- this app is so amazing! I add the channels and videos that are safe for him to view - and NO ADS🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 ### 5/5 — Finally *2026-05-23, version 52.17* We have been using this app for a month. I am so grateful that we finally have found a way for our kids to enjoy some of what is entertaining to them without ads and recommendations that are designed to hurt them. Thank you. ### 4/5 — 4 Stars *2026-05-21, version 52.17* I really enjoy this app because it lets you get 5 or 6 channels for free and other things that are similar to this made me do a subscription. The only thing is, it likes to be difficult when it comes to sinking with the internet. ### 5/5 — The best!! *2026-05-16, version 52.17* I love this app! It put more control in my hands and less filth in my kids eyes! ### 5/5 — Great but one change *2026-05-07, version 52.17* I love this app, as an 11 year old it feels good being able to watch videos. I just wish you could add a shorts feature, where you can scroll through your allowed channels shorts. Just think that would be cool. Tanks anyways! ### 5/5 — Great *2026-04-12, version 52.17* Love this app ### 3/5 — FiX nOw PlEaSe *2026-03-28, version 52.17* It’s very good it has everything but when I put my email it doesn’t work it dose not do nothing to my email no text or nothing so I would like to fix this problem so can you guys put in my email please and thank you ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I don’t like how you have to pay for the hours they can watch. Other than that it’s alright *2026-08-22, version 52.17* I don’t like the subscription. ### 1/5 — Please fix!! *2026-05-29, version 52.17* YouTube videos stopped playing and told me to sign in to confirm I am not a bot.I dont have a YouTube account and don’t want to create one.Plus it gives you a link to YouTube.The whole point is to keep kids off of YouTube!I use(d) it for music and can’t anymore. I used to enjoy this app because you could listen to more music than you could in YouTube kids. Please fix it because it’s basically unusable at this point. ### 1/5 — Bad *2026-05-15, version 52.17* It is charging me 4.99 for a subscription a didn’t even apply for I would get this app ### 1/5 — Good idea but paid upgrade won’t work *2026-02-20, version 52.17* My son used this and it was good until the 1hr time limit kicked in. It offered for me to pay to subscribe for £2.79 a month, I clicked off and clicked back and it said £3.69. I went online and it said $4.99 per month. I paid for the upgrade and none of the “premium features” are available despite having subscribed. ### 1/5 — Bad *2026-02-20, version 52.17* This app sucks ### 1/5 — Really bad… *2026-02-14, version 52.17* Okay so this game is very bad because videos take about 1 to 7 days to get onto the platform. My friends always say my fav YouTuber just posted but I don’t see until days after. It costs money to watch more than 5 channels! YouTube is FREE. Don’t waste your money just monitor your child’s YouTube history. It’s not that hard 💔🥀 ### 1/5 — Boring! *2025-08-12, version 52.8* I can’t test my fake email and I can’t watch anything (I don’t own an email I test this) anyways I hate to describe this app but it looks like bitview collab with yt kids ### 1/5 — Please remove time’s up for today *2025-07-21, version 52.0* Good but not good ### 1/5 — Not good *2025-07-18, version 52.0* Not good ### 1/5 — Terrible Lyla I hope your seeing this *2025-07-06, version 51.16* Lyla this is bad ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 1000% recommended *2026-08-15, version 52.17* Safe Vision does not let videos through I haven’t approved like YouTube Kids. This app is a staple in our house. ### 5/5 — Been using for five years *2026-08-12, version 52.17* It’s AMAZING 🤩! Now my mom puts the channels on bc I’m a teen. But there is one thing I wish was different and that is that I wish there was an option to download some videos so you can watch them offline. But besides that AMAZING! ### 5/5 — Whoever owns or someone who works for safe vision is a predator *2026-07-29, version 52.17* I’m 10 I can’t email him whenever I write a review about a bug he just says email me a make a review responding to him he says email me again he’s trying to get me to email him ### 5/5 — Safe vision review *2026-07-20, version 52.17* Safe vision is a great way to NOT fry your child brain ### 5/5 — Excellent for our family *2026-07-18, version 52.17* We’ve been using Safe Vision for years. It’s been perfect for our girls and our desire to keep them safe from unwanted content. Excellent app and at a great value. ### 5/5 — AMAZING! *2026-07-16, version 52.17* This app is amazing but I feel like it needs a unwatched/watched video section but overall it amazing and I love watching bc I can’t doom scroll 😂 ### 5/5 — Fix this bug *2026-07-08, version 52.17* Whenever I type car in the search engine it takes ages to load it never dose it always says try again later I can’t search the word car ### 5/5 — It’s pretty nice *2026-07-06, version 52.17* I like it but I don’t like the time limit 😭✌️ but I least I can watch ### 5/5 — I really like it *2026-06-26, version 52.17* They cannot bypass me to access. I must vet it before my child can view the channel. ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-06-17, version 52.17* This is the absolute best app! I’m so happy to have my kids watched the YouTubers they love without fear of inappropriate commercials or other non age appropriate videos.
