## What is ViewNest?

ViewNest is a parent-controlled YouTube viewer for kids. Choose exactly which videos, channels, and playlists your child can watch — and they'll never stumble across
   YouTube Shorts, autoplay recommendations, or videos you didn't approve.                                                                                             
                                                                                                                                                                         
  WHY PARENTS LOVE VIEWNEST                                                                                                                                             
                                                                                                                                                                       
  YouTube is full of incredible content for kids — and a lot you don't want them seeing. ViewNest gives you back the control. As a parent, you build a private library
  of approved videos. Your child opens the app and only sees what you put there.                   
                                                                                                               
  No public YouTube browsing. No "up next" autoplay surprises. No Shorts. No ad-fueled rabbit holes. Just the videos you chose.
                                                                                                                                                                       
  KEY FEATURES                                                                     
                                                                                                                                                                       
  • PIN-locked Parent Dashboard — your settings, hidden behind a 4-digit code only you know.
  • Approved-only viewing — kids see your curated library, nothing else.                                                                                               
  • Bulk-add videos by URL, or import an entire YouTube channel or playlist in one tap.
  • Built-in YouTube search with SafeSearch enabled — find new videos and add them to the library without leaving the app.                                             
  • Daily screen-time limit — set a cap your child can't override.                                             
  • Allowed-hours schedule — restrict viewing to homework-free windows.                                                 
  • Minimum watch time before switching — stops endless skipping between videos.                               
  • Inactivity-based App Lock — closes the app when your child walks away.                                              
  • Sign in with Apple or Google — no extra password to remember.                                              
  • Family-aware multi-device — your library and settings sync across up to 3 devices on one account.                   
                                                                                                                                                                       
  HOW IT WORKS                                                                                     
                                                                                                                                                                       
  1. Sign in with your Apple or Google account.                                                                         
  2. Open Parent Settings and add the videos, channels, or playlists you want.                                                                                         
  3. Hand the device to your child — they only see what you approved.
