This is the age when mobile
technology brings and makes several markets out of multimedia content. Many
successful platforms like Youtube and Vimeo served as better alternative for
television with their video sharing capabilities. They have shaped multimedia
entertainment especially for kids. One promising app on the AppStore which is offering
the best selection of Kids’ entertainment is the Children Cartoon TV Series.
You’ll know all the bells and whistles about this app if you continue to read
on after the jump.
User Interface
The app has a very simple and
minimalist interface. Once you open the app, you’ll be greeted by the peach-ish
background which will eventually lead you to language selection. There are tons
of language settings that you could choose from – English, Arabic, Chinese,
French, German, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese and Spanish. Once you’ve
click on the desired language, a card style selection will prompt the screen
containing TV shows which you can choose from. What I don’t like about this
part is that a scroll-list of TV shows is superimposed in front of the
card-style selection.
Any other points about the app
are very good. You can get your way easily without the fear of scrambling in
weird portions of the app. Likewise, using the app is just a walk in the park.
It’s even simpler than Youtube.
Video Playback
Video is pulled-up in a fast
manner. It’s like they have store these videos in their database locally.
However, they don’t; videos are loaded directly from Youtube. They have wide
range of children-appropriate videos which is both educational and
entertaining. Even adults will enjoy this app too.
Another downside is the idea of
having advertisements seen directly below the player when you’re watching in
portrait mode.
Free for a limited time
The Children Cartoon TV Series app
is free on the AppStore for a “limited time.” They have over 17,000 cartoon
videos that your kids will surely enjoy. One good thing about the app is that
it’s kid-friendly. Parents don’t have to be concern on their kids’ app-usage.
Instead of using Youtube, kids could have a “safer content” consumption by the
use of this app.
