KERALA: OTT platform Epic On, from IN10 Media Network, has introduced a new feature on its platform – the Kids Safety Pin. The kid-safe enabled login requires a pin to access content exclusively made for children.
The pin login feature will help parents monitor children's viewing habits and protect them from unsuitable content for the age group.
Epic On is also planning to create originals, acquire children's movies, edutainment, and gamification around quizzes for its young audience, making it a one-stop 24/7 entertainment OTT app with parental control.
The platform, which has a separate section for children, offers a mix of VoDs and a linear feed of the network's children's channel, Gubbare. With its 360 degrees’ offerings for children targeted for the five plus years, the streamer has a whole section of VOD libraries from Gubbare (ViR The Robot Boy, My Bhoot Friends, Marcus Khiladi among others), Amar Chitra Katha, Jam Studio, E-books, and many unique podcasts.
"We at Epic On are constantly working towards bettering our audiences’ viewing experience. With children being indoors due to the pandemic, there has been an increase in viewership in the kids’ category, the latest feature will give control in the hands of the parents so that they can create the best experience for their children. We encourage parents to talk openly about these safety features with kids," said IN10 Media Network COO Sourjya Mohanty.
Epic On is currently available on Jio Fibre, Airtel Xstream, Apple TV, and FireTV.
