After spending my hard earned cash on Funamo Parental Control for Android Devices for my kids Kindle Fire, I discovered it completely ignores Youtube Safety settings. Their response?
"The safety settings are not supported for mobile youtube site. This is true for any devices including any Android devices and iPhone/iPad. If it is an Android device, you can use the Youtube app which does support safeSearch. But Kindle Fire does not support Youtube app (and many other Google apps). So unfortunately you will either block youtube or allow it on Kindle Fire."
They neglected to mention this little detail in their FAQ about Youtube that they keep pointing me to.
And when I asked for a refund because it does not perform as advertised? "We don't have a refund policy".
Forget Funamo and go with Mobicip, which filters Youtube for you while also doing a great job of safe web browsing and reporting what your kids are up to on the web. And it's only $10/year. MUCH better product.
