Vine Kids, a new version of the iOS app with curated content appropriate for younger audiences. Vine Kids retains the same six-second, looping format that
made Vine so popular in the first place, but the folks at Vine hand-pick
the videos to ensure there’s nothing crude in them. Apparently
the idea for the new platform came to fruition this month, when an
employee commented on how much their child enjoyed using Vine.
Carolyn Penner, Vine’s head of communications and marketing, wrote on the
Vine Blog:
“[The colleague] said he wished there was a separate app she could use
to more easily watch posts that are appropriate for kids.”
She
added: “That week happened to be Hack Week, a time when we get to work
on projects outside of our day-to-day work. So two folks teamed up and
built exactly that.”
