Seven steps, most of them ours. The only work left for you is deciding where your own line sits.
One song or a whole playlist. Today that means YouTube links. Spotify, Apple Music and SoundCloud are on the way.
Every song on the list gets read and assessed on its own merits, not guessed at from the title or the thumbnail. You do not have to sit and pre-listen to any of it.
Each track comes back scored across nine categories, with the specific line that caused the concern. If we cannot read a track properly, we say so rather than guessing.
Set the line once per child, per class, or per room. The same song can be fine for a nine-year-old and blocked for a five-year-old, and you decide where that line sits.
A plain verdict on every track so you can press play without a second thought. Flagged tracks wait for your call instead of being silently dropped.
We push the cleaned playlist back to the service you came from - same order, same vibe, minus the surprises. Save it straight to your own YouTube account so the car is ready before you leave, or grab a share link that works on any device.
The song is only half the problem. Our browser extension hides comment sections, suggested videos, end screens and the autoplay countdown, so what comes after the track is still your choice.
The problem is the same everywhere: someone has to check the music, and nobody has time to listen to all of it first.
The birthday playlist, the road trip, the tablet in the back seat. Check it once, hand it over, stop hovering.
Recital and class playlists cleared before the term starts, so a parent in the waiting room never hears something you did not catch.
Kids parties, school discos, community events. Hand the DJ a list you have already checked instead of hoping for the best.
Background music that stays background. No lyric surprises over the speakers while families are sitting there.
Families draw the line in different places, and so do studios. Set what each category means for each profile: what passes without asking, what comes to you first, and what never gets through at all.
Every flagged track shows you the line that triggered it, so you are overruling a specific thing rather than arguing with a black box. Change your mind and the playlist updates.
KidSafeTube is an assistive tool, not a guarantee. We recommend an adult stays the final judge of what children listen to.
