The YouTube Kids app was developed in order to accommodate the request from parents as family entertainment is growing. YouTube is also seeing a 200% year-over-year growth in that department. With this parents can now also set limits on adult contents to prevent your child from viewing such videos. Aside from that parents can also set timer limits wherein the app will automatically shut down and can't be restarted without entering a password.
