Is YouTube Kids a safe app for children?

YouTube Kids does not have targeted advertising and contains safer content. However, videos are screened using a mix of automated analysis and user inputs. This can result in inappropriate content making its way into YouTube Kids. Children watching YouTube Kids should be carefully monitored or Content Settings should be set to "Approved content only." This setting will allow you to choose the videos or collections that your child can watch. With this setting, children will not be able to search for videos. The suggested settings for YouTube Kids are shown in the image to the right.
