Your kid found another video. You already know the drill: it looks fine, it sounds fine, and it is absolutely not fine.
Strangey Dangey checks it first. Search the show or paste the link and Strangey hands you a verdict.
THE VERDICT
Clean: green light, age-appropriate.
Sus: proceed with caution, here's exactly what to know.
Hard Pass: hard no, here's why.
Every verdict shows its receipts: a breakdown across seven filters, tuned to your kid's age.
Unkind Language: bullying, name-calling, mean-spirited humor.
Violence: fighting, weapons, dangerous stunts.
Brat Behavior: disrespect and tantrums modeled as funny.
Creep Factor: predatory vibes, grooming patterns, elsagate-style content.
Scary Factor: jump scares and dread they're not ready for.
Overstimulation: rapid cuts, constant yelling, dopamine-hijacking pacing.
Consumerism: stealth ads, merch pushing, toy-driven content.
Even Clean comes with a heads-up: we flag how scary it peaks, so bedtime isn't a surprise.
START WITH A DIAGNOSIS
Tell us what your kids already watch and we'll load it into Strangey Dangey. You see what that mix is actually feeding their brains across seven dimensions: Empathy, Learning, Creativity, Curiosity, Big Feelings, Problem Solving, and Movement. That's the Brain Diet. Rotate in shows that fill the gaps, and get picks chosen to feed what's missing.
BUILT FOR HOW YOU ACTUALLY PARENT
- Stay where you are: tap Share in YouTube, Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video, Hulu or Apple TV+ and the verdict shows up right in the share sheet, for every kid at once.
- Every kid is different: verdicts adjust to each kid's age, and what's fine for the 11 year old isn't fine for the 6 year old.
- You make the call: every verdict waits for your approve or veto, kid by kid. Your yeses build the family library.
- No cold start: hundreds of popular kids’ shows and movies with verdicts.
- Know where to watch: when a show earns its spot, we tell you where it's streaming.
PRO
Free gives you 5 screenings a day for your first 7 days, then 3 a week forever.
Pro is a monthly or annual subscription. Annual runs less than half the monthly rate. Pro unlocks:
- No daily cap for normal family use*
- Family Sharing: one sub covers both parents on the same Apple Family
- Custom per-kid filter thresholds
- Full screening history (free keeps the last 7 days)
*What "no daily cap" means. The free tier has a small weekly screening limit. Pro lifts it, and for any normal amount of household screening you will never hit a cap. That is what we mean by no daily cap or unlimited. It is not an allowance to run the service at machine scale. Fair-use limits apply to every account including Pro, set far above what a family screening shows by hand will reach. We'll tell you where the line sits for your account if you ask, and we may adjust these limits to keep the service healthy and our costs predictable.
PRIVACY
We send public captions and video metadata to Google Gemini for analysis. Never your name, your email, your kids' names, or any device identifiers.

This is a great app for parents and grandparents who want to quickly determine whether a movie or TV show is appropriate for a child’s age. I’m using it to make sure my small grandkids don’t venture off watching shows or movies which are not good for them when I’m babysitting them. And it works like a charm. I especially appreciate how quickly it provides a detailed, thoughtful assessment. It gives you useful information in seconds so you can make your own informed decision about what your child or grandchild watches. Very helpful, easy to use, and much more informative than simply looking at a movie rating. Highly recommended!
Strangey's answer now lands in his speech bubble in one smooth motion. Nothing on the page jumps.
Older saved screenings get his take too.
Search is quicker, and every suggestion says what it is, so a series and its holiday special never look alike.
Your Watch shelves show one tile per show, with clean names and the right picture.
A streaming service you shared from no longer shows up as if it were a YouTube creator.
Behind the scenes, his shelf of already-screened picks more than doubled, and every new title was checked against what's actually been published about it.
