Questions
Does Viddie include movies or shows?
No. Viddie plays content from your family's existing Plex library. You'll need a Plex account, access to a Plex Media Server, and child profiles set up in Plex Home.
Which devices is it for?
Viddie supports iPad with iPadOS 17 or later.
Can children watch offline?
Viddie has parent-managed downloads for supported media. A grown-up prepares the videos in advance so completed downloads can play when Plex is unreachable. Availability depends on your server and media format.
Is Viddie made by Plex?
No. Viddie is an independent app and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Plex. Plex is a trademark of Plex, Inc.
