Tubsy
A safe YouTube player for kids. 100% controlled by parents.
Tubsy gives parents total peace of mind. A beautifully simple, ad-free video player built for kids. No algorithms, no hidden distractions — just safe, hand-picked YouTube channels, playlists, and videos in a completely controlled environment.
Hey Product Hunt community! 👋
I’m Michael, co-founder of fat elephant. Together with my wife, we are on a mission to build thoughtful digital tools for modern families—designed by parents, for parents. Today, we are incredibly proud to launch our very first product: Tubsy!
As parents ourselves, we knew the struggle all too well: YouTube has amazing educational content, but the unpredictable autoplay algorithm, weird sidebar recommendations, and constant ads can turn it into a digital wild west within seconds.
We built Tubsy to fix exactly that and give parents total peace of mind. It’s a clean, simplified video player where you have 100% control over what your kids see. No hidden distractions, no anxiety—just safe, hand-picked YouTube channels, playlists, and videos in a completely controlled environment.
What makes Tubsy special:
🚫 100% Ad-free viewing environment
🎯 No unpredictable algorithms or unwanted suggestions
🛡️ Full parental control over channels & playlists
⏳ Built-in screen time limits
📱 Clean, kid-friendly interface
Since this is our first official release as fat elephant, your feedback means the world to us! We’d love to hear your thoughts, feature requests, or questions.
Thank you so much for your support! 🚀
