Velocity Kids addon Install Guide
Wow what can i say The Kodi Velocity For Kids add-on from the BlazeTamer repo has been launched. What a great addition to Kodi and Velocity.
So whats it all about? This addon is a companion to the Velocity addon. If like me you have kids and you worry about their internet safety and what content they can view then this addon is for you. It can be easily integrated into any kids build or profile.
It allows you to create a kids folder from Velocity and Trakt and your kids will ONLY have access to that list. You have the ability to add, edit, delete, and control what content your kids have access to. Superb i must say.

This is what BlazeTamer had to say on Velocity Kids
To use V for Kids
Authorize Velocity if you haven’t yet, then in EITHER Movies or TV section go into custom lists and create a list named “Kids” with no quotes
The newly created list will now be visible in BOTH Movies and TV in the custom list section.In Velocity for Kids, Authorize it with THE SAME account you used in Velocity ( No need for a second Trakt Account) , after authorization , you will be presented with only 2 options, Parent Approved Movie and TV Shows.
The only content in either of those will be what you added in Velocity .
Settings in Velocity for Kids is similar to Velocity. Minus the watched check-mark repair section.
So you can go through Velocity right clicking or Pressing C or menu button and adding content to your Custom kids list you setup like below. Click add to custom list then select KIDS.
Then when you go into Velocity kids all the content you have added will be listed for them to enjoy.
So now the kids have their very own Trackt List to enjoy and for you to enjoy the peace lol.
