Playlock
You pick what your kids watch
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Your child watches only the videos you picked, from YouTube links or your own Photos. Set a time or video limit, and only your PIN leads out of kid mode.
Playlock is a video player that plays only the videos you chose. You build the library, and your child watches it: no autoplay, no recommendations, no search.
YOU BUILD THE LIBRARY
• Add videos from Photos, or paste a YouTube link and see a preview first
• Share a video from YouTube, Safari or Photos straight to Playlock. Every add asks for your PIN
• Reorder videos, or hide one without deleting it
KID MODE
• Big, colorful tiles with only your videos
• When a video ends, the "Again!" screen offers more from your list and nothing else
• The status bar and system gestures stay out of the way
SESSION LIMITS
• End kid mode after a set time, a number of videos, or whichever comes first
• A video counts once it's watched for a minute or played to the end, so a quick peek doesn't use one up
• When the limit is reached, your child sees "All done for now!" until you unlock
• Force-quitting the app doesn't reset the session
ONLY YOU CAN LEAVE KID MODE
• Leaving takes a press-and-hold plus your PIN, Face ID or Touch ID
• Playlock shows you how to turn on Guided Access, so the Home gesture goes nowhere
ACTIVITY
• Watch time per day, videos watched, sessions and the most watched videos, for today, the last 7 days or the last 30 days
NO ACCOUNT, NOTHING COLLECTED
• No sign-in, and Playlock collects no data. Your videos, PIN, settings and activity stay on your device
• YouTube videos play in YouTube's own player, under YouTube's Terms of Service
For iPhone and iPad, in English and Portuguese.
