YouTube Kids is an American kids' video app developed by YouTube, a subsidiary of Google. The app provides a version of the service oriented towards children, with curated selections of content, parental control features, and filtering of videos deemed inappropriate viewing for children aged under 13. First released on February 15, 2015 as an Android and iOS mobile app, the app has since been released for LG, Samsung, and Sony smart TVs, as well as for Android TV. As of September 2019, the app is available in 69 countries, including Hong Kong and Macau, and one province. YouTube launched a web-based version of YouTube Kids on August 30, 2019.YouTube Kids has faced criticism from advocacy groups, particularly the Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood, for concerns surrounding the app's use of commercial advertising, as well as algorithmic suggestions of videos that may be inappropriate for the app's target audience. The app has also been associated with a controversy surrounding disturbing and/or violent videos depicting characters from children's media franchises. Criticism over the videos led YouTube to announce that it would take more stringent actions to review and filter such videos when reported by the community, and prevent them from being accessible from within the YouTube Kids app.

YouTube Kids is a video app designed to provide a safe and engaging environment for children to explore a wide range of family-friendly content. The app offers a curated selection of videos on various topics, including educational content, music, and popular kids' shows, all aimed at fostering creativity and playfulness. Parents can customize their child's experience using parental controls, which allow them to limit screen time, monitor watched content, and block or flag inappropriate videos. The app supports multiple profiles, each tailored to different age groups: "Preschool" for children under 4, "Younger" for those aged 5-8, and "Older" for kids aged 9 and above. This flexibility ensures that children can explore content suitable for their age and interests. Additionally, parents can choose the "Approved Content Only" mode to handpick videos and channels for their child, ensuring a controlled viewing experience. YouTube Kids uses a combination of automated filters, human review, and parental feedback to maintain a safe online environment for its young users.
