About Kindle FreeTime
Kindle FreeTime is an app included on Kindle Fire HD that allows parents to create a customized content experience for each of their children.
While using Kindle FreeTime, children can enjoy the content parents make available to their profile, and parents can prevent children from accessing content or features outside of their Kindle FreeTime Profile.
Parents can:- Choose which books, apps, games and videos they want their children to view.
- Individually set limits on the amount of time that children can access books, videos, apps, or total screen time.
- Create profiles for up to six children.
- Prevent children from accessing content or features outside of their Kindle FreeTime Profile.
- See content in a kid-friendly interface and see their recently viewed content on the Home screen carousel.
- Add items to Favorites, and view Favorites by tapping the star on their Home screen.
- Navigate visually to content based on characters or topics - for example "Cinderella," "Dinosaurs," or "Puppies." These categories are dynamically generated from the content you choose to include in your child's profile.
Note: Kindle FreeTime is available exclusively in the Apps library on Kindle Fire 2nd Generation and Kindle Fire HD. It is not available for Kindle Fire 1st Generation.
