Children TV ~ videos for kids 37
Simplistic UI that could use an update
While the interface of a video playing app isn't as important as the content itself, the GUI is what helps the user assess the overall experience and what makes people decide whether they intend to continue using the app or uninstall it.
Children TV's interface could use an upgrade but it works rather well. Still it needs some time to load videos, however that could depend on your internet connection as well. The app comes with instructions of use, but you must scroll down in the list of languages in order to access them.
Play various entertaining videos to your child
All videos are divided by age group and language, so you can find videos even in your child's second language or have them learn a new one. It doesn't have ads the only way you can support the developer is by subscribing.
The app is free, however the developer mentioned at the beginning of the tutorial that users may be asked to contribute by 0.99$ per year and review and rate videos.
Some shortcomings
The videos are streamed from YouTube and you can change their quality directly from the app. However, there's no option of creating playlists and you must tap next each time a video ends, which is quite uncomfortable considering that videos last for up to 10 minutes.
Also, it has some stability issues and might not provide you with all the suggestions of videos in a certain language or play a different clip than the one you've selected.
