This app is terrible for children. 3 minute advertisement that isn't even kid friendly isn't unacceptable. You think you can let your child watch something for 30 45 minutes while you do a chore or cook them something to eat but instead they get stuck with inappropriate ads. The app also will not shut down correctly when you're exiting from it to turn on something else, so it continues to play in the background.

Good app but the ads need to go. There were no ads showing when I initially got the app and all of a sudden ads started showing. I don't mind Storytime ads but the toy stuff is a no go. I don't want my kids watching commercials for toys or anything else that's for purchase. I don't see a pro feature that lets you buy to opt out of ads either.

Loud intro plays everytime the app is opened, which is super annoying if you're in public. Also have to sign in every time the app is launched. Just keep it signed in all the time. Also, the content isn't all great for kids. I don't want my kid watching videos of people playing video games or other mindless shows that aren't educational. It's too cumbersome to go block all the garbage shows one by one. Make it easier to block categories or give us the option to ONLY ALLOW certain shows

Love this super easy kid show app. Install on all my kids devices. Have it on my own tablet so when the baby gets fussy I go straight to this to keep the little guy happy. Only issue I have is when a show is done, it's starts playing sample video audio, when I go into a new show I have audio over audio from different shows. Exit app and start over to fix it a lot gets annoying.

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!

Update: issues have been resolved, and we have been enjoying Kidoodle, ad free. I'm happy to support a Canadian company. I subscribed (paid annual fee) hoping to get rid of ads, but we are still seeing their Story Snacks and movie ads interrupt the shows. I emailed support 2 weeks ago about this and i didnt see a response from them yet. Overall, its a decent app.

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

It is a really good app to binge your favourite shows. But to me, there are two problems. 1. It doesn't have some of my favourite shows like Teen Titans Go, and Indian shows like Oggy and the cockroaches, etc are also not available. 2. There must be some detailed options like video quality style, subtitles and some others. I hope these problems will be fixed in the future. Hope this review helped! Many people want more shows so please add them!

Parents room messes up my phone. The second I open the parents room, my phone flips between landscape and portrait mode over and over, non stop. Unable to click, exit or do anything. I wanted this to work, seems like a great app, however, it is useless. Do the world a favor and remove Diana from your app. That's the one reason I can't let my daughter use it as it is. I was trying to block it but with the parents room non functional, I'm forced to uninstall.

This is perfect for toddlers, and its free. I like that it focuses more on educational stories/episodes (not sure if this is by design) - Easy to use interface and search function. - Some advertising but nothing to serious. - Pretty good database of available stories. No reason not to get this app in my opinion. @Kidoodle. Not a dealbreaker, but It would be nice to be able to randomize episodes within a selected section, for example the current available "Book Worms" section.

I think there's something wrong with your parental settings page. The bug keeps switching the screen from portrait to landscape in an unending, brain hurting loop, and my phone is slowed down to where it takes ages to acknowledge that I am trying to close the app or getting into the actual settings. Just started using this app a few minutes ago, so not sure if there are other bugs.

Great app. I'd give five stars but is it ok if you can put Chloes closet back on? I miss it. Thanks man. Edit: I just realized Chloe's closet is still there! My bad. And I found other childhood shows that I thought were never gonna be found on these apps. You have outdone yourselves and I'm sorry for not looking for it properly. God bless you all

I would like to get this app for my kids, but I won't let me create a new account. I don't know how good or bad this app is, so I hope someone can help me with this. Here is something funny, the whole time it was not excepting my birth year. My teen daughter figured it out and I was able to fix it. The only problem I have now is it won't let me put in a nickname for the profile, but as long as we can watch without logging in we should be fine

The show options are wide but there is not a place to put favorites. At the same time this is supposed to be a kids friendly/safe add app but currently there is quite a scary "Ghost busters" add which is not appropriate for children under 12 so I am seriously considering to delete and cancel my subscription. Previously it was appropriate toys and games adds.

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 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.
