Parental Control on StreamX is an essential feature that helps you manage what content can be accessed on your device. Not every TV or TV box on the market today offers this functionality. For StreamX, we prioritize the viewing experience of our users more than anything else, which is why the Parental Control feature has been integrated into the two latest 2025 models: X2 Pro and X2 Max. Let’s explore how Parental Control on StreamX works!
What is Parental Control and Why is It Important?
In today’s digital age, children are increasingly exposed to content that may not be suitable for their age. Controlling what they watch is not always easy, as even content labeled “for kids” on YouTube can contain violent scenes and inappropriate implications. Even when watching TV at home, parents may struggle to monitor what their children are exposed to, as most channels cater to adult audiences.
StreamX recognizes that having control over what your family watches is more important than ever. That’s why we developed Parental Control on StreamX X2 Pro and X2 Max, which allows you to set a password for specific channels you don’t want others to access. To view these channels, a six-digit password is required.
How to Set Up Parental Control on StreamX?
Setting up Parental Control on StreamX X2 Pro and X2 Max is quick and easy. With Parental Control and Time Shift on StreamX, you no longer have to worry about inappropriate content being accessible to younger viewers. This feature is particularly useful for parents who want peace of mind while their children enjoy TV time.
Just follow these steps:
1. Select the Channel You Want to Block
2. Open the Settings Menu by pressing the right arrow on the remote.
3. Scroll down and select Parental Control on StreamX.
Set a six-digit password (if using it for the first time). If a password has already been set, enter the existing password to unlock the channel.
To change or remove the password, you must enter the old password first. If you forget the password, you can reset the box to factory settings.
Top Channels Parents May Consider Blocking and Why
Below are some channels that parents should consider restricting due to their content and impact on young viewers.
YouTube Channels with Inappropriate Content
Millions of people create content on YouTube to gain fame, producing a range of videos from pranks to funny clips, challenges, and more. However, some YouTube channels contain content that is not suitable for children.
Prank and Challenge Channels
Some YouTubers, such as “Bobo Ziki” and “Prank On,” are known for producing prank videos that are inappropriate for younger audiences. These channels, often featuring kissing pranks and misleading content, have been criticized for their lack of child-friendly material. While some may view these videos as entertainment, parents should be cautious about their influence on impressionable children.
Animated Story Channels
Certain animated YouTube channels, such as “True Stories” and “Good Vibes,” may appear innocent but often feature mature themes that are unsuitable for children.
These channels have gained millions of views, making them popular among younger audiences despite containing content that is more appropriate for adults. Parents should regularly check their child’s YouTube search and watch history to ensure they are not exposed to inappropriate animated videos.
Popular Children’s YouTube Shows
Popular children’s YouTube shows like “Diana and Roma” and “Vlad and Niki” have sparked debate regarding their influence on young viewers. While these shows present a glamorous and entertaining lifestyle, some parents believe they encourage materialism, disrespectful behavior, and unrealistic expectations in children.
One parent review stated:
“If you want children who are rude, materialistic, and who will imitate bad behavior, then this show will undeniably condition your children to act inappropriately. It teaches children that parents are not to be respected.”
Another widely followed YouTube channel, “Vlad and Niki“, has raised concerns due to its portrayal of undisciplined behavior. The show frequently features arguments between siblings, a lack of parental authority, and destructive actions, such as knocking over a Christmas tree or breaking household items. Some parents worry that their children may imitate these behaviors.
One viewer mentioned:
“It took two of their videos to put them on the block list. Kids learn by mimicking, and I don’t want to risk my son emulating their behavior.”
TV Channels with Violent and Sexual Crime Scenes
While many TV channels offer entertaining and educational content, some may include themes that are not suitable for younger audiences. Even mainstream networks can feature shows with mature language, violence, or explicit scenes that parents might prefer to restrict. Below are some channels that may require parental discretion.
HBO
HBO is known for its high-quality movies and TV shows, but a significant portion of its content includes mature themes, strong language, violence, and adult situations. While it offers family-friendly programming during certain hours, much of its content is not suitable for young viewers.
Showtime
Showtime features a range of intense drama series, documentaries, and movies that often include graphic violence, explicit content, and strong language.
Shows like Dexter and Billions contain themes that may not be appropriate for children, making it a channel parents may want to restrict.
Adult Swim
Although it airs animated content, Adult Swim is geared toward an older audience and includes shows with dark humor, crude jokes, and explicit themes. Popular series like Rick and Morty and The Boondocks often contain strong language and violent scenes, making it unsuitable for younger viewers.
