In addition to parental controls that lets you set time restrictions for each kind of available content -- say, 30 minutes for videos and two hours for books -- it also has a bunch of other filters you can toggle. There's an age filter to make sure your kid doesn't have access to anything meant for tweens and even an education filter that hides entertainment content until your kid has read enough educational materials.

The Android app will also get the discussion cards Amazon launched in April, which contain info on the show or book your kid watched or read. That way, you can have a meaningful discussion without having to read or watch Dora or Splat the Cat yourself. You can check out all the service's features on Google Play and get one month of FreeTime Unlimited for $0 if you're trying it out for the first time.
