This is no different to our parents generation that used to tell us to stop watching TV or get off the games console (like a Gameboy). But this is besides the point.

I feel it's great, but then I use Google Kids on the Fire, because Amazon's app is junk in comparison.

And also, my kid is (disabled) autistic and non verbal and this keeps them calm and happy.

So yes it's a great idea.

Yeah, except for the part where it’s engineered to be as addictive as physiologically possible, it’s exactly the same!

Yeah, but they were right though?

Honestly, I respect different approaches for disabled kids. Must be very hard, I can't even imagine.

Other than that, movies and games are less destructive than algorithmic feeds, especially short form video. It is preferable to move outside or read a book. But I think we're comparing vegetables to candy to cigarettes.
