What you set up, and what they see.
Every Video Rated Before They Watch
Even creators you trust post things you would not approve of. Subtle objectification, harassment, bullying: those are three of the 21 themes the Watchly AI checks every video for.
- ✓Safe, Caution or Unsafe on every video
- ✓21 named themes, checked one by one
- ✓Read from what is actually said in the video
- ✓You still decide what goes in the library
No Comments. No Ads. No Algorithm.
No comments section. No algorithm. No autoplay rabbit holes. Just safe content that you've approved.
- ✓Comments completely removed
- ✓Parent-approved content only
- ✓No algorithm manipulation
- ✓Time limits that work
Limits You Set Once
Give each child a daily watch time, a bedtime window and intermission breaks partway through. The app enforces all three, so the end of a session is not something your kid negotiates with you.
- ✓Daily watch time per child
- ✓A bedtime window that closes on its own
- ✓Intermission breaks partway through
- ✓Enforced by the app, on every device
One Profile Per Kid, One Pause Button
Each child gets their own profile, with their own library and their own limits. From your phone you can see what any of them is watching right now, and pause it while it is playing.
- ✓A separate profile for each child
- ✓See what each child is watching right now
- ✓Pause any child’s screen instantly
- ✓A PIN keeps them in their own profile

No algorithm
No feed, no recommendation rail, no autoplay. Inside Watchly there’s nowhere else to go — just the library you built.
Zero ads
No pre-roll, no mid-roll, no banners, no sponsored anything. The video you approved plays — and nothing else.
