AugMEnt
Read full descriptionHide full description
AugMEnt is a short video app where parents stay in control. Create with a full creative studio (filters, colour grading, effects, music, boomerang and multi-clip editing), and watch a feed matched to your age band. What we deliberately left out No comment section. No advertising. No messaging with strangers. These aren't settings you switch off. They don't exist in the app. One app, five age experiences Content is organised into age bands: 3–5, 6–8, 9–12, 13–17 and 18+. Filtering runs on our servers, not on the phone, so every account sees content matched to its band. Parental controls that hold A PIN verified on our servers, daily screen-time limits, age band control, upload and sharing permissions, and blocking. The same on every device the account uses. Every video is checked first Uploads go through automated moderation, with human review where needed, before they reach any feed. Your videos stay yours We never watermark your videos. Delete one and it's removed and stops being served. A parent or guardian holds the account for every user under 18. Coming soon: AR lenses built on our own in-house engine, and family accounts so one parent can manage several profiles.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: AugMEnt at every 3 months against Branda's every 9 months. AugMEnt also leads on iOS requirement (15.4 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
