    Won’t pause devices or adjust time correctly

  • Better that the old app, still pretty bad UX

    Amazon needs new UI/UX designers. Does this app function? Yes. Does it work in an intuitive way that follows Apple’s designed guidelines? Absolutely not. Good parts: It is much easier now to access & change my kids settings. The other app made you jump through all kinds of UI hoops to do simple things like change the time limits. This basically surfaces just that behavior, so that’s an improvement. Bad bits: the navigation structure is horrible. So many views you navigate into to adjust settings and when you tap or swipe to go back you’re taking back several views, not the previous one. For example, to adjust the range you navigate to your child’s settings, tap the gear icon, tap “adjust age filter”. Here, if you tap the back button you are taken back 1 view, but if you swipe back you are taken all the way back to the top level. There are inconsistencies like this all throughout the app. Another example of poor UX - the view for adjusting daily limits. Scrolling up & down in this page is clunky. They aren’t using the standard velocity one expects when scrolling views. Additionally, if you begin a scroll by touching one of the time limit sliders, the time limit is adjusted rather than scrolling the view. For a “tech” company as large as Amazon I expect they could afford designers that know how to do correct UI/UX for iOS. The lack of concern for the user experience all across Amazon’s mobile apps is just another example of how we are the product and the purpose of the app is to provide a minimum amount of functionality by putting in the minimum amount of effort.

    Not very maneuverable. Not sure if the app is the problem but after I signed in on the app my child’s tablet began throwing a lot of errors

  • Alexa for kids is great

    My wife and I are enjoying this device for our daughter, does everything it says it does. Love the parental guidance it has, definitely want one for my room. Do recommend this for any parent, for their child to have fun with it

  • I don't know where you all find the ease or convenience

  • This app does not support reviewing pending store request.!

    Then what is the point of this app if I can’t approve app downloads. So frustrating and pointless

  • Easy to use

    This app is a lot easier to use on my phone. There should be a select all option for shows I don’t want my daughter to watch. Instead of having to go through and select every single one in the settings. Very tedious but otherwise the app is fine.

  • Amazon do better!!!

    I have been using Amazon kids for about 6 years. Stop allowing young kids to download without parent permission! I even made sure I changed the settings to NO DOWNLOADS and my 2 year is still able to download content on his own… UNACCEPTABLE… especially the apps that are taking pictures of my kids without my acknowledgment or permission! If Amazon kids + doesn’t do a better job catering to my kids then these developers I’m done with with this service for good.. I only gave Amazon tablets to my kids, even though I didn’t want too, because of how Amazon kids was advertised that the parents would be in 100 percent in control. After using your products seems like the "profit margins" are in control.

  • Approving Apps

    “This app does not support reviewing pending store requests” The only way to do this is by getting a notification via email or txt which then has a link that takes you to Amazon Parent Dashboard website and then you must sign in. Why isn’t this on the app? The app should support this.

  • Failure to Fix

    1
    By Markymark124
    I’ve been unable to do anything to adjust my children’s accounts now for almost a month. I submitted a bug report through customer service about a month ago, but still have yet to have anyone reach out to help me fix it. This was supposed to be one of the perks of getting the Fire Tablet. If this continues, I will likely cancel my subscription, and may consider returning the tablets as this is a deal breaker.
