Entertain Your Kids With Shaw Go Apps

Entertaining little ones while on the go can be difficult.

Waiting in line at the grocery store, road-tripping to Grandma’s, sitting in a waiting room at the doctor’s office: these situations all try the patience and attention spans of our little ones.

The world of mobile devices offers many distractions for kids, but not all of them are age appropriate, let alone educational.

That’s where the Shaw Go YTV and Shaw Go Treehouse apps for iOS and Android come in handy.

The Shaw Go YTV app allows you to take your kids’ favorite shows on the go.  Now they can access family friendly shows while you stop at the bank, the dentist, or wherever your day takes you.

This entertaining app boasts the following features:

  • Layered navigation: touch menu screens allowing for easy navigation.
  • Cinematic view: bold layout with large images that bring the content to life.
  • Video bookmarking with progress bars: stop a video and pick up right where you left off.
  • Parental Controls: for younger children, select content rating that require PIN access.
  • Smart search: a predictive search tool that enables you to easily find the shows you want.
  • Social sharing: share your experience with friends using your favorite social media tools.
  • Intelligent streaming: superb video quality at any connection speed, all the way up to 720p high definition (HD).
  • AirPlay/DLNA: Stream content from your mobile device directly to your connected TV.
  • App tour: instructional pages that demonstrate how to use the app.

 

For yet another fun app to help distract your kids, you can download the Shaw Go Treehouse app.  This app not only entertains, but provides an interactive learning experience for kids. Kids can bring their favorite cartoon characters on the go with them, using the Treehouse app.

 

The Treehouse app uses the following features to keep your kids entertained:

  • Character-driven carousel navigation: designed for use by two- to six-year-olds with simple set-up and control for parents.
  • History: a helpful navigation tool that remembers up to 10 most recently watched episodes.
  • Video bookmarking with progress bars: stop a video and pick up right where you left off.
  • Smart search: a a predictive search and discovery tool that allows you to quickly find the content you want.
  • Intelligent streaming: incredible video quality at any connection speed, all the way up to 720p high definition (HD).
  • AirPlay/DLNA: Stream content from your mobile device directly to your connected TV.
  • App tour: instructional screens that explain how to navigate the app.

 

 

I love the accessibility of this app and the way it uses shows and characters that children are familiar with.

Being able to control your kids’ access to the app is also key and will help your children to stay entertained without the need to continuously oversee their use of the app.

The ability to pause and restart shows will prevent many a tantrum and the app will ease boredom while mom or dad takes care of necessary errands.

Having an app that allows you to use only videos and characters that you approve is such a benefit!  No need to worry about what will pop up on this app because you get to choose!

Visit the ShawGo website to learn more or download your app today!
