Additionally, all parental controls and settings that have been implemented on the YouTube Kids mobile app will automatically be transferred to Apple TV.

YouTube Kids is continuing to expand to additional devices and countries, per YouTube, and is currently available on select LG, Samsung, and Sony smart TVs, as well as Android TV devices.
