A family IPTV setup should make it easy for children to find their channels and hard to stumble onto anything else.
Lock and hide
| Player | Parental controls |
|---|---|
| TiviMate | Parental PIN, lock groups |
| IPTV Smarters | Parental control in settings, lock categories |
| GSE Smart IPTV | PIN lock per group |
| MAG / Formuler | Parental PIN in settings |
- Set a PIN.
- Lock adult groups and any channels you choose.
- Hide groups nobody uses, so lists are short.
Make it easy for kids
- Create a "Kids" favourites list as the first screen on their device.
- Use a separate device for the children's room so their favourites are not mixed with yours.
- Turn on the TV's sleep timer for bedtime.
Screens at once
Kids' TV plus your TV playing at the same time is two connections; a 2 device plan covers it.
