Hello people, welcome back. It's no doubt that there's some
very questionable content aimed at younger audiences on YouTube.
I personally believe that a lot of this stuff shouldn't exist,
but others argue that it's OK because of the separate YouTube
Kids app. Still doesn't explain this Paw
Patrol slop content and others alike floating around, but I
(00:21):
digress. Today we're going to find out if
the YouTube Kids app actually makes a difference.
To find out, we're going to diveinto their website and see how
fast we can uncover the worst video possible.
I'll be giving myself just 15 minutes to do so.
Based on what we uncover, I'll give the app a safety rating
from one, meaning it's downrightdeplorable, to 10, meaning it
(00:44):
gets the full keyboy seal of approval.
Oh, and the timer's already ticking.
Let's start. So we're here on the YouTube
Kids app. I'm going to do, I'm a parent.
Just to set this up real quick, we have to set a pin code, which
is actually pretty interesting. 7 * 963.
I'm good at math, I agree. We're going to say that we're
ages 9 to 12 just so we can potentially get the worst
(01:06):
content possible on this app because that's what our thing is
on Now. Interestingly, you can choose if
you want search on or off. I'm going to do on, but it is
interesting that you could actually disable this feature.
And here we are. We're on the YouTube Kids app.
As you can see, the recommendation is the catalog
that you get recommended to you.It's pretty small.
It's like a handful of videos. There are a few ways to
(01:27):
navigate. We have the shows music explore
in gaming sections and immediately I already see Linky
box. You can click on any video.
So for example, let's click on this Linky box video, Super
Mario, mute that shit because I cannot listen to this.
And yeah, if we look here, we have a suggested, once again,
not a huge catalog, but we do have videos suggested to us and
(01:49):
we could also search for stuff. So the way I'm going to try to
find the worst video, I'm going to just click through videos and
see what pops up. And then maybe we'll try
searching some terms based on what we find.
But already I'm on Nike box which which sucks.
It is a brand new Nintendo Twitch game that we are so
excited to play. I hate lanky box dude.
Our recommended is like cooked right now.
(02:12):
It's literally just all lanky box videos.
If we keep scrolling, we can seewe have Preston, some Minecraft
slop, you know all that. I do know where stuff gets weird
is like animation videos. So let's look up like Paw Patrol
maybe. And we're looking for third
parties doing Paw Patrol videos.Here's one.
(02:33):
But I'm looking for like, the animated ones because that's
where it gets weird. Oh, OK.
This is kind of strange. I don't know.
I mean, it's just baby dolls, though.
I don't want to watch ads, bro. Like this suck.
What did the digital circus maybe love?
OK, like this should not be on this app.
Do you see this right now? This definitely should not be
(02:54):
here. Now, you could argue this is
just a mermaid, but I mean, it'sit's suggestive.
It is definitely suggestive. All right, so let's see what
this is. Sometimes the things we see with
our own eyes are not necessarilythe truth.
(03:14):
That's true there. Was a mysterious place that we
couldn't see, but it truly existed.
There was a digital. Circus there.
A digital circus, OK, and. No one knew where it was and
those who live there also general.
Circus from Ohio the. Inhabitants there were peculiar.
Bro like what is this like you know the a furry why does she?
(03:44):
I don't think this is good to beon the YouTube Kids app.
I wouldn't want my kids watchingthis.
I don't know what happens in this video.
And her mother? She became quite different.
Some of the animations do seem kind of suggestive.
You're also was the loading. The loading animation is
literally like a pile of shit, so that's awesome.
Let's try to look up Love story.Love story was one of the
recommended search terms. OK bro like there's no way this
(04:08):
is allowed on the app. What the what is this?
That's just weird. Whoa.
Fairy tales. Very interestingly, you could
actually go on their channel. Yeah, I mean, just look at this.
It's it's kind of like those content farms, like gummy Dora.
Not as bad though, but it's definitely there.
Like what is this? What's going on in this picture?
We have pregnant people, furries, all these tales, which
(04:31):
is like some weird like fetish, I think.
I I don't know bro what the if the Prince was pregnant?
None of this should be shown to kids.
Whoa, fairy tales? Definitely the worst thing I've
seen so far. This is going to be my go to
channel to find the worst piece of content off of.
Let's see if we can find something worse.
I'm also curious about Skippity toilet though.
That's very interesting. You can't actually search
(04:51):
Skippity toilet on the YouTube Kids app.
Maybe it's because of the violence.
What about cameraman? Oh, so there we go immediately
it seems like they were blockingskippity toilet for some reason
and I was pretty easily able to get around that filter.
So I can still watch my amazing skippity toilet content.
Thank God. Now I will say there's nothing
(05:12):
weird. This is all probably just brain
Rob. So honestly, guys, This is why a
lot of this stuff probably has like hundreds of millions of
views because they're all just promoted on the YouTube Kids
app. There's not much to pick from,
you know, let's try ATV woman. Oh no, Oh no.
It's very interesting to me thatthis kind of stuff is on here.
Now, I will say there's definitely worse on the YouTube
(05:33):
main app. Do not get me wrong, I've seen
way worse, but the fact that this image right here is on the
YouTube Kids app is pretty sad to see.
Like a million percent would notwant my kid seeing that.
Like I put him on this app to keep him safe from stuff like
this and it's still there. You just need to know what to
search. Now look at the recommended
(05:53):
whenever I search TV woman on the TV woman kids app, TV woman
SUS TV woman X brown cameraman and TV woman dash bikini emoji.
I would love to see what pops upif you search that.
What is this? OK dude?
(06:16):
Why is the thumbnail that though?
Like what? I can't believe this shit right
here. I mean the video itself wasn't
bad but that's pretty crazy. What's taking my clothes off one
layer at a time? I'm sure that it's just a
suggestive title, but so I'm going to under.
(06:41):
That's an absolutely absurd title for her just taking off
her like sweatshirt. But why is that?
How is that title getting through to the YouTube Kids app?
The title taking my clothes off one layer at a time.
That that's pretty insane. Broke pregnant versus rich
pregnant versus giga rich pregnant shit pregnant yummy.
(07:02):
Can I get a job? Dude?
This is pretty crazy to me that this stuff is available on the
app. I'm not going to lie.
Now we are looking for the worstthing.
So I think we, I don't know. Okay, just like that people in
their underwear. All my recommended.
Look at my recommended. Now that I watch some of these
(07:23):
it is all just innuendos and suggestive content.
Pretty insane that that quickly YouTube Kids learned what I
wanted. Very strange to me that this
stuff is allowed. Not that surprise though I will
say there is a decent filter andyou can't find certain things,
so that's good. We are looking for the worst
(07:44):
content, like I said, so I thinkwe need to go back to search.
I think it can get a little bit worse.
Let's do kiss. Of course, you can search the
word kiss. OK, how can I not search the
word Skippity toilet on the YouTube Kids app?
But you can search the word kiss.
Pretty strange. I will say this is also weird,
OK, Also, not only kiss, whatever, it's not that bad, but
(08:05):
it's just weird. It's just weird that you can
search that animation love. How can I search kiss animation
love? SUS on the YouTube Kids app and
it actually recommends me stuff.That's absurd.
Shrek's Kiss. Yeah, that's amazing right
there. Bro.
What happens if I search the bikini emoji?
(08:26):
Oh my God. You can and I OK.
None of it's that bad though. A few moments later, ha ha.
Ha ha ha, only 20 seconds left to find something.
That means to pick something outof everything we saw to be the
worst SO. I don't know.
I don't know what the search. I only have 10 seconds left.
I don't know. I feel like I searched
everything. Love story sauce, anything,
(08:49):
anything, anything No, I mean I think we saw some pretty so
yeah, the timer is up anyways, guys, from the 15 minute search,
the worst thing that I was able to find.
I know at the beginning I said Ihave to find the worst content,
but I'm going to just change it to the worst thing that I found
on the app because some of the bad things were search terms.
(09:10):
Some of them were, you know, just thumbnails.
So the worst thing I found was this woe fairy tales channel.
Now, the content itself isn't the worst.
I didn't actually watch all of it.
I mean, some of these are like hour long videos.
I don't have the time to sit through those right now.
Yeah, just the thumbnails alone.Stuff that should 100% not be on
(09:31):
YouTube Kids. I mean, look at this bro, when
the Prince was pregnant and there's like hands sticking out
of his pregnant belly. Kids don't need to be seeing
this man. I will say YouTube Kids 100% is
more safe than the actual YouTube app, but there is still
definitely some questionable stuff there.
And it also seems that there's some workarounds and different
ways to find stuff for the safety rating.
(09:53):
Once again, A1 means it's deplorable.
A10 means I give it a seal of approval.
I will say immediately, I'm not giving this website my seal of
approval, but I will say it's more safe than the original
YouTube app. I mean, there's just some
terrible stuff on there that is also always recommended to kids.
So I would prefer that parents let their kids on YouTube Kids
(10:16):
over the original YouTube tube app.
For my safety rating, I'm going to give it a four, which means
it's a little bit on the not so good side.
A5. I mean, it's it's whatever.
There's definitely stuff kids should not be seeing here.
So yeah, YouTube Kids gets a four out of 10 on the safety
rating. Anyways guys, thank you so much
for watching till then of my video.

because like I just said, you watch till the end of my video.

year. That's only possible if you help
