LumiTube pre-screens YouTube content with AI and builds a personalized feed around your family's values. Your child gets content they love. You can finally put your phone down without worrying about what they're watching. Unlike YouTube Kids and other apps, LumiTube works for kids of all ages and covers the full YouTube library — with the guardrails you set. Try LumiTube free for 7 days — then $9.99/month. Cancel anytime. ——— How It Works ——— Setup takes a few minutes. You choose a content style that fits your parenting approach — from highly educational (science, history, documentaries) to independent explorer (gaming, DIY, cooking) — then select the specific topics your child is interested in. LumiTube builds their feed from those choices. From there, our AI screens new videos 24/7 — reading titles, descriptions, transcripts, and channel history to catch anything that doesn't fit your values before it ever reaches your child's feed. You can cook dinner or take a call without checking over your shoulder every two minutes. After each video, LumiTube guides your child through a short breathing exercise — helping them pause and transition away from the screen without the meltdown. It's a small habit that replaces endless scroll with a moment to reset. Your child gets room to explore, follow their curiosity, and discover things they love — within the boundaries you've thoughtfully set for them. Every child in your family gets their own safe space, shaped to their age and interests — all managed from one parent account. ——— Your Parental Dashboard ——— See exactly what your child has watched. Adjust preferences in minutes. Influence what they discover next — without being the spy. - Set daily screen time limits and schedules - Set minimum standards for academic, creative, and moral quality in your child's feed - Add or remove topics and interests anytime - Block specific subjects entirely - Weekly SMS reports — stay connected to what your child is learning without hovering - Screen time tracking and viewing insights - All settings protected by a parent PIN ——— Why It Matters ——— Research shows 27% of videos children watch on YouTube are age-inappropriate. For a child watching 84 minutes daily, that's roughly 23 unsuitable videos every week. LumiTube screens and blocks those videos before your child ever sees them. YouTube's algorithm is built for engagement, not safety. Studies show it can recommend harmful content in 1 out of every 3 viewing sequences for vulnerable users. We replace it with yours — a curated feed that builds healthy habits instead of addictive ones. 46% of parents whose children use YouTube say their child has already been exposed to inappropriate content. LumiTube filters content before your child ever reaches it. ——— Built With Care ——— We built LumiTube in partnership with child development experts — not just to block harmful content, but to understand what healthy screen time actually looks like for children at every age. LumiTube is designed for COPPA compliance and does not collect personal data from children. We believe screen time can be wonder, creativity, and discovery — not something to worry about. LumiTube gives you the confidence that what your child watches reflects your care. You care deeply. We're here to help you care well. Try LumiTube free for 7 days — then $9.99/month. Cancel anytime. ——— Terms of Use (EULA) ——— https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
