Parental YouTube control apps
This cluster consists of parental-control and kids' video apps that restrict YouTube viewing to parent-approved channels, block ads and short-form content, and offer features like time limits, watch history, and cross-device sync. Entries appear sporadically from February 2015 through June 2026, with a slight concentration in early 2026 (two entries each in March and June). The traction leaders are Kivvie: Safe Youtube for Kids, YouTube Kids, and WhitelistVideo Parent control, all showing 0 stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
