This app is used for downloading, organizing, and listening to podcasts. There is a searchable, user-populated library and while there are many educationally valuable podcasts to be found, there are many others that are themed around adult subjects such as sex, drinking, drugs, etc. This app does not respect Apple's device restrictions. Podcasts have not been reviewed for explicit content and are not marked as such. No child should download Podcasts without a parent knowing.

Podcasts can be very educational and cover any range of subjects that may be of interest to your child but, unfortunately, this app does not filter out age inappropriate content or allow for Parents to set any other restrictions. If you allow your child to use this app you may want to monitor their activity to be sure they are not being exposed to age inappropriate content. Please visit our Parent's Guides section for more information on how to talk to your child about mature themes on mobile apps.
