Viewer Testimonies: I’m always looking for good Bible teaching programs for Attie to watch. She loves to watch GETV Kids and watches the shows over and over, usually two sometimes three times a day! She loves to sing and dance with them. She will watch them enough to be able to say everything word for word! Lol. She loves it! Thanks so much!” - Diane & Attie A Message from Children’s Pastor, Brett Owen: I have to admit, I love technology and it is with me where ever I go. My children have grown up with smart phones and tablets; their media consumption is very different than when I was a kid. Rather than traditional television or DVDs, many children today are on the go with tablets or smartphones. As a parent, I am very conscientious about what my children watch, and I recognize how secular media is sneaking un-biblical messages into even the “safest” programs and media for our children. I promise GETV Kids produces media that parents can trust. Our vision is to provide a safe media environment, specifically purposed to instill a love of the gospel in a child’s heart. Together, let’s take all the gospel to all the world and to every generation.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GETV Kids at none against Lightgliders's 4. GETV Kids also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.1). Lightgliders's advantage is rating (4.2 vs 3.8) and review sentiment (73% vs 57%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
