Parent dashboard

The Kivvie parent dashboard is where adults manage the YouTube whitelist. Children watch on the mobile app; parents approve channels, adjust profiles, and manage the account from the web.

What parents manage from the dashboard

  • Create and edit child profiles.
  • Search for public YouTube channels and approve them per child.
  • Remove channels that no longer fit.
  • Install and customize channel packs.
  • Review watch history and watch duration.
  • Manage subscription and plan settings.

Why controls live on the parent dashboard

Kivvie separates parent controls from child viewing. The child app does not include a settings area where a child can search all of YouTube, approve channels, or change the whitelist.

This keeps the child experience simple: open Kivvie, choose a profile, and watch videos from approved channels only. The parent dashboard remains the control center.

Dashboard changes sync to the child app

When you approve or remove a channel, the child app updates right away. If the app is already open, refresh the profile or reopen the app to pull the newest list.
