What other parental controls can I set up?

In addition to locking the screen, YouTube Kids offers several other parental controls to enhance safety:

1. Content Filtering: You can choose the age group (preschool, school-age, or all kids) to filter content appropriately.

2. Search Control: Disable the search feature to prevent kids from searching for videos.

3. Timer: Set a watch time limit to manage how long your child can use the app.

4. Approved Content: Handpick specific channels or videos that are safe for your child.

5. Pause History: Temporarily pause viewing history to prevent recommendations based on previous videos.

Remember, these controls help create a safer environment for young viewers!

The “trusted content” feature in YouTube Kids allows parents to select specific channels or videos that they consider safe for their children. When enabled, only content from these trusted sources will be accessible within the app. It’s a great way to ensure a curated viewing experience! ????
