Parental Controls
-
I have been searching high and low for a podcast app with parental controls with no luck. Is it something you’d be willing to incorporate into your app?
Most ‘kid’ specific podcast apps have a list of predetermined, curated podcasts, but none allow *adding* or monitoring what kids can subscribe or listen to. The result are apps with content appropriate for preschoolers or younger elementary, but none catering to or allowing control for older kids and young teens.
The control can be as simple as pin/password-restrictions for listening to or subscribing to a new podcast. Ideally, search can be filtered to specific ages (or at least exclude explicit content), but what I and millions of parents need is a way to have any podcast available, but require permission (read: pin or password locked) to listen or subscribe.
Thank you!
