PARE Kids
“Can I watch this?”
The child sends a specific video request instead of leaving the approved space.
Request waitingParent-led video. Room for wonder.
Keep their curiosity.
Keep your say.
Choose the videos your child can watch. PARE keeps your decisions at the center, with a parent app for you and an approved viewing space for them.
Apps are currently for invited TestFlight testers. Creating an account does not grant app access or start a subscription.

One video or a whole channel?What PARE means
Parent Approved Reviewed Entertainment
Parent judgment stays at the center. We explain what to notice, where the tradeoffs are, and what you can do next, without pretending one rule fits every child.
The paired PARE apps
A child asks. A parent decides. The answer stays clear.
PARE Parent is where you make the decisions. PARE Kids is your child’s approved viewing space. Pair them with an eight-character code, then manage requests, approved videos, channels, schedules, activity, and per-child settings.
The native apps are currently available to invited TestFlight testers only. An active PARE Family subscription unlocks the parent apps, web portal, and paired Kids devices for the household.

For the questions that follow you home
Not every question starts with a screen-time timer.
PARE covers what families actually choose: video, games, movies, books, connected devices, privacy settings, social features, and the habits that connect them.

When everything feels urgent
Start with one small family decision.
You do not need a perfect technology policy by tonight. Pick the point of friction you can see.
- 01Name the moment
Bedtime, autoplay, a new game, a first phone, or a request you are unsure about.
- 02Check the default
Look at what the service does next when nobody intervenes.
- 03Choose one boundary
Make it observable and easy to explain, not a vague promise to “be safer.”
- 04Review what happened
Adjust with your child after you have real evidence from family life.
Why this desk exists
Parents deserve more than panic or product hype.
PARE Media is a practical publication and a paired-app product for caregivers raising children around connected technology. We name tradeoffs, separate verified capabilities from advice, and update guides when the decision changes.
Our guidance is educational, not medical, legal, or clinical advice.
A few things worth knowing.
What does PARE do?
PARE Parent is where caregivers review video requests and manage approved videos, channels, schedules, and child settings. PARE Kids is the paired viewing app shaped by those decisions.
Does PARE control every app my child uses?
No. PARE’s paired apps support parent-controlled video. Our guides cover a wider range of family technology, but an article about a game or social platform does not mean PARE controls that service.
Does approval mean a video is guaranteed suitable?
No. Approval records a parent’s choice for their child. PARE does not certify creators or replace your judgment. Review the specific video and revisit broader permissions when the content changes.
Is the guide library free to read?
Yes. You can read the parent guides without an account. PARE Family’s paid subscription is for the paired apps and household tools. See current pricing and billing details.
