Consumer electronics brand Hisense has announced a collaboration with VIDAA and A Parent Media Co (APMC), owner of Kidoodle.TV, to offer a dedicated Safe Streaming remote, launching this June across its 2026 television range in the UK.
The launch seeks to address growing concerns regarding the digital safety of children. Designed for small hands and little voices, the kids remote, powered by Kidoodle.TV, provides a dedicated gateway to a safe, human-vetted digital environment. The remote connects exclusively to VIDAA Kids, where every show is curated and screened by real people. The remote gives children the independence to explore content, while offering parents peace of mind. VIDAA Kids gives access to over 50,000 episodes from some of the most popular children’s TV series, such as Paw Patrol: Pup Tales, Baby Shark, SpongeBob SquarePants and Like Nastya.
Beyond solving for online safety, the remote’s interface features recognisable icons and voice commands, enabling kids to freely explore and find desired content.
Robert Andrews, Head of Strategy & GTM – TV at Hisense UK, commented: “As smart and connected TVs become the norm, concerns about what content children are exposed to are growing. Ensuring younger users are protected while leading the way in entertainment innovation is a key priority for Hisense. With the launch and inclusion of the Kids remote, powered by Kidoodle.TV, we’re proud to be the first manufacturer in the UK to offer seamless access to a safe-streaming service which will give parents control and reassurance that their child can watch television independently.”
Neil Gruninger, CEO & President, APMC, added: “VIDAA Kids, Kidoodle.TV is designed to be a safe streaming service that children love and parents can trust. With this launch, we are amplifying our mission to deliver safe, positive screen experiences to families everywhere.
The Kids remote, powered by Kidoodle.TV is included as an additional, complimentary Kids remote across Hisense’s 2026 MiniLED and RGB MiniLED range, including the E8S, U7S, U7S PRO, UR8S and UR9S series.
