Three calm steps.
SlowTV is designed so the hard thinking happens once, up front — and the day-to-day experience for your child is as simple as turning on a TV. Channels, not videos. Always on.
Pair a device with a code
Open SlowTV on a spare phone, tablet, or TV box. It shows a short pairing code — enter it in the parent portal to link the device to your account. No child account, no login on the device itself.
Pick channels and set limits
From the parent portal you choose which channels are on, what content fills them, the hours the screen is allowed, and a daily limit. Everything syncs to the device live — change it from your phone any time.
The kid just watches
On the device there are no menus, no thumbnails, and no app switching. Up and down change the channel; that’s it. When the daily limit is reached, the screen calmly winds down on its own.
What the child can and can't do
Can
Change channels, pause and play, and adjust volume — using a remote, the device buttons, or the single hard-to-trigger on-screen channel knob.
Can't
Browse a library, search, get recommendations, open other apps, or leave SlowTV. The back gesture never exits playback — only a parent unlock does.
