YouTube Kids is a filter. It starts with everything on the internet and tries to block the bad stuff.

Which is why your kid searches "Peppa Pig" and ends up watching an AI-generated nightmare 20 minutes later. No filter can keep up with that.

Kivvie works the other way. Starts with nothing. You pick the channels — that's the whole feed. No autoplay, no algorithm, no search bar pulling them somewhere else.

That meltdown when you try to turn the TV off? Autoplay. Built to keep kids watching. Take it away and the meltdown goes with it.

Available on iOS and Android. https://t.co/aamWTAPpJe

What's the most unhinged place YouTube Kids autoplay has taken your kid? 😅

After a child watches Cocomelon on YouTube, 40% of what gets queued up next is AI-generated slop. Not a weird edge case. 40%.

The instinct is: better filters, stricter settings, sit next to her. But filters don't fix this. The recommendation engine's job is to keep your kid watching. It doesn't care what it shows as long as she stays. You can't moderate your way out of that.

The only fix is no algorithm.

That's why we built Kivvie. You approve the channels, and that's all your kid sees. No recommendations, no autoplay, no Shorts, no search. Bluey plays because you said Bluey, not because a machine decided it was probably fine.

What's the video that finally made you think "I need to just take YouTube off the tablet"? 👇

[Vinnie🇮🇳 @AmblingLife]

You hand your kid the tablet. They start on Bluey.

Twenty minutes later you glance over and something feels off. The thumbnail was cartoon-y but the video is weird. Maybe AI-generated. Maybe just wrong for a seven-year-old.

That's the algorithm doing what it's built to do. It optimizes for watch time. Not for your kid.

With Kivvie, that can't happen. You approve every channel from a dashboard. No recommendations, no Shorts, no search, no autoplay pulling them somewhere else. Just the channels you said yes to.

That's it. A lot of parents say it's the first time they've felt actual relief when the tablet comes out, instead of that low-grade dread.

What's the weirdest place autoplay has taken your kid?

[Vinnie🇮🇳 @AmblingLife]

YouTube added a Shorts timer. Parents can set a cap — 15 minutes, 30, an hour, or zero. Kids can't tap out of it.

I keep coming back to what this actually means. The platform spent years building a feed designed to be impossible to put down, specifically for kids. And their answer is handing you a stopwatch.

We've all done it — handed over the tablet and walked away. And you've probably seen what comes back. Not just screen-tired. Glazed. Irritable. Hard to reach. That's the algorithm working as designed, not a screen time problem.

The timer doesn't change what Shorts is. It just rations it.

What does the after-Shorts fallout look like at your house?
