Symmetry
Draw the missing half of a butterfly. The app checks how closely it mirrors the first half.
Learning app for ages 3–12
Where kids learn math by drawing— and earn their play time.
Symmetry, fractions, shapes and coordinates come alive when kids draw them. You set the screen-time rules, and they keep working even when the tablet is offline.

Math × Drawing
Math they can see, because they drew it
Most apps keep math and art in separate boxes. In YubiKids, the drawing is the math. Every picture is checked by code, so a correct answer is always marked correct.
Fractions
Cut a pizza into four and color three parts. Now “¾” means something they made.
Shapes into pictures
Build a house from one square and one triangle, then decorate it however they like.
Coordinates
Plot points on a grid and connect them. A hidden star appears.
Patterns
Continue a pattern with stamps: circle, star, circle, star… what comes next?
Area & perimeter
Fill cells to build a garden plot, then count the fence around it.
Learn first, then play
Play time they earn, not play time they fight for
You choose a daily learning goal. When it’s done, the play area unlocks. Learning minutes keep adding play minutes at a ratio you set.
- 1
You set the goal
For example: 3 activities or 15 minutes a day. Pick a ratio like 2 learning minutes = 1 play minute, with a daily cap.
- 2
They fill the jar
Your child watches a jar fill with stars as they learn. Earned time is shown as a reward, never as a debt.
- 3
Play unlocks
Games and puzzles open, with a friendly countdown. Earned time resets each day, so nothing builds up.
Parental control
Rules that hold, even offline
The child’s tablet enforces the last rules it received, using a clock that changing the device time cannot fool. From your own phone you can extend, lock or unlock in seconds.
Daily limits & time windows
Set a daily total, allowed hours for school days and weekends, and a bedtime lock.
Works without internet
Limits keep counting offline. Remote changes sync when the device reconnects, and expired ones are dropped instead of applied late.
Parent PIN on the device
A padlock on the lock screen opens a PIN pad, so you can add time with no phone and no Wi-Fi. The keypad shuffles every time it opens.
Remote control from your phone
+15 minutes, lock now or unlock for today, with a clear “delivered” or “waiting for device” status.
An honest note: YubiKids manages time inside YubiKids. It can’t block other apps. To keep a young child inside the app, we’ll walk you through Guided Access on iPhone/iPad and App pinning on Android.

Questions parents ask
Is YubiKids really free of ads?
Yes. There are no ads in any plan, and the app contains no advertising or third-party analytics code. We earn money only from optional subscriptions that parents buy.
What ages is it for?
Children aged 3 to 12, in four age bands. Younger children don’t need to read: every instruction is spoken aloud.
Does it work without internet?
Yes. A starter set of activities comes with the app, and you can download more over Wi-Fi. Screen-time limits keep working offline, and you can always override them on the device with your parent PIN.
Can YubiKids block other apps or games?
No. YubiKids controls time inside YubiKids only. For full-device control, use your phone’s own tools, such as Guided Access or Screen Time on Apple devices and App pinning or Family Link on Android. We show you how during setup.
Do I need two devices?
No. You can set everything up on your child’s device alone. If you also install YubiKids on your own phone, you can check progress and change limits remotely.
What happens when the free trial ends?
It simply ends and you return to the free plan. The 7-day trial needs no payment card and never turns into a paid subscription by itself.
Is the content made by AI?
Content is created with AI assistance, following characters and a style our team drew by hand. A person reviews every activity before it reaches children, and math answers are computed by code, never guessed by AI. Children never chat with an AI.
Which languages are available?
English and Bahasa Indonesia at launch, with Spanish, Portuguese, French and German planned next. Each language is reviewed by a native speaker.
