- Parents choosing YouTube episodes for young children
- Worth noticing
- The TV shows large tiles for individual episodes, and the parent manages the list from a phone; Fire TV, Roku, Samsung and LG TVs are not supported.
Field notes
Setup pairs a TV to a child’s library using a QR code, after which a parent adds YouTube links from a phone rather than searching on the television. The homepage says changes reach the TV within a minute and that separate children can have separate libraries. Support is limited to Android TV and Google TV; the page names Fire TV, Roku, Samsung Tizen, and LG webOS as unsupported.
