This is the spine of the list rather than the whole of it; each heading opens onto a good deal more inside the app, arranged in the same order you see here. Two things make a list this size easy to live with as a family: the search box, which jumps straight to a channel by name, and the player\'s own tools for hiding or locking categories, so the grown-up sections can sit behind a PIN while the children scroll only what you have left open for them.

Box sets for the parents, cartoons on demand for the kids
The subscription also has an on-demand side, held apart from the live channels. You browse it by category, release year or studio from within the player: a children\'s shelf of cartoons and family films to start whenever a toddler asks, and a parents\' shelf of box sets for once the house has gone quiet. Fresh releases turn up often and complete series sit beside them. It will not stand in for a dedicated streaming platform, and we would not pretend it does, but for most households it takes away the reason to keep paying for a second one.
See the whole list on your own TV
A free 24-hour trial opens every channel and the on-demand library for the household.
Questions families ask about the channels
Is there enough on here for young children?
That is where the list begins. Disney, Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network sit at the top for school-age children, Nick Jr, Disney Junior and Baby TV cover the toddlers, and a separate kids section in the on-demand library holds full cartoon series to play on a loop on a rainy afternoon.
Can I stop the children finding the adult channels?
Within the player, yes. Most apps carry a parental PIN that locks a whole category behind four digits, and many let you build an age-rated profile or simply hide the categories a child has no business opening. Set it up once on day one and the little ones can scroll their own cartoons safely.
Are the 4K channels on every plan?
Yes, with no separate tier and no upgrade fee. The 4K feeds carry the big matches, the fight nights and a run of film channels, and each one sits beside an ordinary HD copy to fall back on when the broadband is stretched by everyone being home at once.
Can each person keep their own channels?
They can. A player lets everyone build a favorites list, so the children reach their cartoons in one tap and nobody scrolls past thousands of channels to find theirs. In TiviMate the favorites and category-hiding tools are a Premium feature; the free players offer a simpler version of the same thing.
Is the channel list identical on every device?
Yes. Your login carries the line-up, so no single app owns it: the Fire Stick in the lounge, the Samsung in the kitchen and a tablet on the school run all pull down the same channels. Only the layout differs, and TiviMate keeps a list this long tidier than a basic player manages.
