I mostly downloaded this initially for a friend of mine to try it out before suggesting it to her. It is quite an excellent streaming service/app. It has a rather huge selection of shows to watch, and does not have a ton of banner ads everywhere clogging things up. I particularly like the controls that parents have over things like bedtime and watching times.

I liked the app at first. Or I should say, my kids did. It has some things they weren't familiar with, so the novelty was nice. But then the constant ads became too overwhelming. It seemed like they could barely watch anything before the same ad came on and played 3 times back to back to back. I paid for the subscription since that was supposed to get rid of the ads, but it didn't. My kids were so annoyed w/the ads that they stopped watching anything. I cancelled it, but I'm still being charged.

I find that while the content is safe, there is a lot of non educational videos and it is extremely difficult and tedious to go through the entire list to unselected what I do not want my son to watch. Adding some sort of grouping in the title selection would be helpful to only show content based on the selected age group and if it's educational or not. LolThe startup music on mobile and tablets is also very loud

If normally this app is amazing. The TV shows are perfect for my children and always appropriate for their age bracket. The one issue that I have is it seems that they struggle with their advertisements, I was just watching baby shark with my young daughter and an ad for steel rebarb came on as well as an ad for Idaho health and welfare. I don't mind when they show the ads for the toys or kid appropriate commercials but I don't understand why commercials aimed at adults are on kid shows.

Wow, so bad. I never saw an app that *didn't* want me to sign up. My daughter liked the content but the commercials are always the same and play after only a few minutes of content. So you'll watch the same commercial like 10 times during the same video. I think it's meant to drive you mad so that you'll want to pay for the premium plan. But surprise, when I try to manage my subscription to sign up for premium it tells me "no subscription found" with no option to sign up. Maddening!

Needs a way to block creators. They just add new channels and reappear. Blocking content in the phone app is also tedious having to scroll through hundreds of pages to find a channel.
