YouApprove: Parent-Approved Video for Kids A safer way for children to watch videos from parent-approved channels. Keeping your kids safe while watching online video shouldn’t feel impossible, but it often does. Inappropriate or misleading content can sometimes appear even in popular kids’ video experiences. That’s why we created YouApprove, a parent-managed way to give your child access to fun and educational videos while keeping you in control. Designed for families who want more than algorithm-based filters, YouApprove puts parents in charge of their child’s video experience. Only channels you approve can be viewed, helping reduce the risk of unwanted recommendations, misleading uploads, or unexpected content. How YouApprove Works Most kids’ video apps rely heavily on automated systems to decide what is appropriate. YouApprove takes a different approach by giving parents direct control over which channels their child can access. Videos are displayed only from YouTube channels that the parent has approved. For example, you can approve a trusted educational channel such as National Geographic Kids and make its videos available in Child Mode. No random channel discovery. No unwanted recommendations. You decide what your child can watch. Key Features Parents Love 100 Percent Parent-Controlled Access Block all channels by default, then manually allow only the ones you trust. Custom Channel Library Choose from a curated list of kid-friendly channels, or add channels you already know and trust. Age-Based Filters Find age-appropriate content more easily using recommendations organized by age group. Screen Time Limits Set daily usage limits to help create healthier screen habits. View History for Peace of Mind See what your child watches and when. Simple and Fun for Kids Child Mode is designed to be easy to use for younger viewers. Free for One Child Get started for free, with optional upgrades for families with multiple children. Built for Parents Who Want More Control We created YouApprove as parents after realizing that existing video apps did not give us the level of control we wanted for our own kids. Instead of relying entirely on algorithms to decide what appears, YouApprove lets parents choose the channels their children can access. Whether your child enjoys educational videos, science, animals, music, crafts, or their favorite trusted creators, you decide which sources are available. Give your kids a safer, simpler way to enjoy the videos they love while keeping control in your hands. Download YouApprove today.
