LearnWatchGo The mission of LearnWatchGo is to help parents keep their quiet time with a little more peace of mind. You as the parent can designate which YouTube channels your child can watch. You can choose from any available channel on YouTube. There are no suggested videos outside of the selected channel, and no commenting. As your child watches YouTube within the LearnWatchGo, you can view in real-time what your child is watching. You can also request a transcript of each video that will be scanned to highlight profanity and other questionable language. You can delete and add channels at any time. Next, you can require your child to pass a short quiz in order to view another video. Current subjects available are addition, subtraction, division, multiplication, spelling, and geography, with more in development. You can set the "pass a quiz" requirement for every other video, every two, every there, or if you want, this feature can be disabled to utilize the channel control and transcript review features only. Frequently asked questions: 1) Are the videos kid safe? *LearnWatchGo does not review or monitor videos. You, as the parent, are in control of the channels and therefore the videos watched within the application. 2) Does my child have to answer questions? *No, you can set question frequency to not answer any questions. 3) What channels are available? *Any channel that is available on YouTube can be added to your child's profile. You as the parent are in control of the channel lineup for each profile. 4) Are there suggested videos? *No suggested videos are shown outside of the selected channel. 5) Is it free? *One profile and one group of subjects are free. You can unlock multiple profiles for a one-time cost of $9.99 usd. 6) Does it prevent my child from going to YouTube directly? *No, but you can enable guided access, screen pinning, or a site blocker to prevent click-throughs.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: ColdWord at 4.6 against LearnWatchGo's 4.0. ColdWord also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (80% vs 50%). LearnWatchGo's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 7 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
