### "K-2 Elementary Classroom"

July 22, 2019

5.0

I am thankful for this kind of software that can be used in an elementary classroom. Without it, my students would not have access to many of the instructional support media that I get from YouTube.

Pros

SafeShare links allow me to provide students with videos to view safely on their student Chromebooks. I use the links daily in my instruction with the confidence that my students will view only the information that I am using in my lesson without inappropriate ads and other distracting material.

Cons

I don't like that the free version only allows 20 videos to keep before having to delete what I have saved and need.

### "Great for classroom use"

June 24, 2019

5.0

Overall, I like Safeshare because I can store videos and access them quickly and safely!

Pros

I am an elementary music teacher and I use a variety of YouTube videos in my teaching. I like to use Safeshare for two main reasons. The first is that I can store videos in advance and easily access them all from one place. The second is that Safeshare blocks ads and popups, making videos safe for elementary students to view.

Cons

I have experienced several system outages where I was unable to play videos or add new ones. This was a cause of frustration and happened several times this year.

### "Great Tool for Engaging Lessons"

June 21, 2019

5.0

My students have been more engaged in lessons before my use of short video clips to introduce lessons. They have responded especially well to using educational songs on video that I normally would have avoided showing because of the inappropriate ads that pop up.

Pros

SafeshareTV allows me to take advantage of thousands of free resources on video sharing channels while protecting my students from inappropriate and unwanted content. Parents appreciate that their children can enjoy learning from fun clips.

Cons

I liked least that there was not a notification to me when I accidentally added the same content multiple times.

### "Great for the Classroom"

June 27, 2019

5.0

I’m solving the problem of keeping students focused in the classroom and maintaining the pace that I’d like to set.

Pros

I use this resource frequently throughout the year. Even if a video itself has no sketchy content, I still like to use safeshare to avoid advertisements. One 10 second ad for fortnite can throw my classroom into disarray and prevent students from absorbing the message of the video.

Cons

I wish there were allowances for more than a few videos. As I said, I use this resource frequently and wish the free version allowed for more videos to be added

### "Videos made easy"

July 10, 2019

4.0

As a kindergarten teacher I use SafeShare to edit my videos and create playlists for easy accessibility. I appreciate being able to access my videos from anywhere, the ability to add to or edit as needed, and that adds and suggested videos are eliminated (as opposed to on YouTube).

Pros

I like that I can edit the videos to my students’ educational needs. I like that I can create playlists for easy access and organization.

Cons

There are occasional glitches with building, adding to, and editing playlists. Additionally, the ability to search videos within the SafeShare community is not straightforward.

### "Great tool for teachers"

June 23, 2019

5.0

There are so many great video resources on YouTube that enhance classroom lessons. Teachers create and use videos to appeal to their visual learners. However, YouTube is an unreliable platform for young learners. The advertisements and video recommendations that come on the screen can be distracting and inappropriate. SafeShare removes those obstacles. Without SafeShare, I would not be able to use many valuable video resources I have found over the years.

### "Amazing Tech Tool for Elementary "

June 20, 2019

5.0

My experience has been nothing but positive and I personally use this tool on a daily basis. I highly recommend for every educator to use tool when sharing a video with students, especially at the elementary level.

Pros

SafeShare.tv enables my elementary students to view videos I select in a safe environment. I also love that it’s intuitive for educators to use and it’s compatible with Seesaw.

Cons

I guess the only downfall would be the free version has very limited space to store videos for future reference. I wish educators could get more space to save their videos.

### "Wonderful tool"

February 26, 2020

5.0

I love this software and use it all the time. My students are spared from wasteful ads that many times are inappropriate for them.

Pros

As a teacher I use it to block out ads, and avoid my students from being distracted and clicking on side videos.

Cons

Pricing is a problem. You are only allowed 20 videos on a free account. My school will not pay for it so I am stuck paying for it. I think there should be exceptions for teachers. We don’t make enough as it is and have to pay for something that would make my lessons better.

### "I love the product, but..."

June 25, 2019

5.0

I have always had a positive experience with the product for well over 7 years!

Pros

I love that it eliminates all distractions, pop-ups, ads, etc. But wow, it's hard to get a group to use the same account even after paying the group rate, and it's impossible to get customer service to respond to your inquiries.

Cons

But wow, it's hard to get a group to use the same account even after paying the group rate, and it's impossible to get customer service to respond to your inquiries.

Reason for choosing SafeShare.tv

Because I lead a school of students Pre K3 up to 8th grade, it's important that my teachers can use technology in the classrooms and not have to worry about the inappropriate content that can pop up without a moments notice. I would also add that this is true when I am doing a presentation with my students, teachers, or parents.

### "Keep kids safe the easy way"

June 29, 2019

5.0

It is really hard to find good educational video content. As a teacher I need to protect my young students from inappropriate video content. Some videos have great content however sometimes ads and other links are not appropriate for my students. Safeshare tv allows me to show appropriate videos to my students without having to worry about inappropriate ads or links that will lead them to other videos I have not vetted yet. It is a Quick way to share content with students that will allow me to teach the standards but yet allow safety for my students.

Pros

I like that I can easily take videos and quickly remove ads, buttons, and links to other sites by simply pasting link into safeshare website.

Cons

That to make more than a few videos you have to purchase a subscription

### "Bravo!"

June 19, 2019

5.0

I greatly appreciate your customer service!

Pros

I am most impressed with technological -user friendliness of this program. I am easily able to create and organize my video content dialed in for my presentation purposes and without the unnecessary or inappropriate distraction that may occur while using other video playback platforms. I also appreciate the filter system built in place which is best for review of appropriate content. I teach religion and at times need to present what might appear to be controversial content but in the long run, I am able to email the customer service with timely response for my "false-negatives". This is truly worth every penny and slight set-back for me...what is best for the common good is most important. Well done team safeshare!

Cons

Sometimes it is difficult to locate my safeshares within the playlists.

### "Great tool for teachers "

June 25, 2019

5.0

It’s also great to save videos you’d like to return to at a later time or use all of the time. I use it for quiet music in my classroom.

Pros

Safe, distraction- and ad- free way to display videos or share videos via a link. Students can focus on a video instead of everything else on the screen that they’d normally see on YouTube (let’s face it- there’s plenty of distracting and inappropriate content there!)

Cons

Requires frequent sign-in when I use it daily in my classroom and don’t need to waste time signing in daily.

### "A+"

July 16, 2019

5.0

My primary use of this site is to create clean copies of YouTube videos to show my students. I love that the site is easy to use and creates a copy of the video that will be shown without additional ads popping up that be not be appropriate for my students to see.

Pros

It’s easy to use. It gives me a “clean” copy of a video to show my students without having to go on YouTube and risk something something inappropriate popping up. I can edit the stop and start point on a video.

Cons

I have nothing that I dislike about this software at this time.

### "Worth it!"

June 20, 2019

5.0

Used for many years as a teacher and knew it was worth the money to purchase. I have over 100 videos cleaned and ready to use throughout the year with my students. It takes away the unknowing anxiety of what could pop up.

Pros

I love that this software takes away questionable and unpredictable content from any videos I need. It is also fairly easy to link these videos for future use.

Cons

Trying to navigate all of your videos is a bit difficult. They don't always pop up in the most recent order, but there is a search function for this.

### "Super Helpful!"

June 26, 2019

4.0

Pros

One of the things I enjoy about using SafeShare is that I don't have to worry about inappropriate ads popping up and that no inappropriate videos will be allowed. I can have the videos needed throughout the day ready to go.

Cons

There were times where the videos would have loaded but would not play. That became very frustrating when I was trying to keep my lesson going but the video would not load. However, when I did need to contact support, the issue was resolved.

### "Beneficial but Not Affordable"

July 4, 2019

5.0

Pros

This product has been beneficial in exposing my students to educational videos & clips without the fear of inappropriate media sneaking its way into the classroom.

Cons

I have been using this product since it was free and continued to use it in the limited free access that has since been available. As a classroom teacher in a Title I school, I would have to pay out of pocket for this resource so I was forced to use only the free option. While it is nice, I found myself having to switch out videos on my dashboard due to lack of space. I have since found free options that I use in the classroom that allow for more flexibility.

### "Great service"

June 20, 2019

5.0

Overall, great. It could be a little more intuitive and I'd love more free capabilities for schools. I've recommended it to parents and coworkers alike. I'm so glad I found safeshare through another teacher!

Pros

I absolutely love that I can have a video from youtube ready to show my students without having tow worry about something inappropriate showing up.

Cons

The cost if you want to do/have anything but a very minimal experience using it. It's a little "clunky"-not always the steps I would expect to take to use it.

### "Best way to keep students safe while watching video clips"

February 6, 2020

5.0

I have used SafeShare.tv to safely show video clips to students as part of my classroom instruction for the past 5 years.

Pros

I like the ease of use to copy the URL from a YouTube video and paste it into the SafeShare.tv site.

Cons

There is now a limit of 10 videos you can upload without paying for a subscription. If you want to upload more videos without paying, you have to delete some of the older videos you have saved.

### "Perfect for Keeping Students Protected!"

June 20, 2019

5.0

Pros

It is extremely easy to create safe videos for my students to view, whether I upload from YouTube or from my own video creations. I like the fact that all adds are removed and I do not have to worry about what "suggestions" may come up for future videos to watch or a "suggested" video starting to play after the completion of my targeted video.

Cons

The best improved to the site that I can make is how my videos are organized. I would like the ability to design my own method of organization; such as, folders. Since I teach, I would prefer the ability to create folders I can label for specific units of study. I have so many videos created that at times it is difficult to sift through all of them to find my targeted video. Folders I can title and move around would be an awesome feature to add.

### "SafeShare.tv in the classroom"

June 22, 2019

5.0

I love SafeShare.tv and use it on a daily basis in my classroom and I think it is very easy to use.

Pros

It is FREE of charge for the most part. It allows my students to watch educational video clips from youtube without inappropriate ads popping up. I am able to have a playlist which makes it easy to plan my videos ahead of time and easy to find them.

Cons

As a teacher I am always looking for products that are FREE of charge and the only con is that there is a cap on the number of videos I can have.

### "A very nice viewing experience."

November 26, 2019

4.0

Video sharing without any privacy or ad blocker is really very good for productivity. Some times this is very important not to have any unwanted video in the playlist.

Pros

I like the idea of sharing without any kind of recommendations, which is very awkward when not showing the relevant content. I don't have any problem with the advertisement which also helps me and some creators to provide great content. But as a teacher, some time ads are distractive to my slideshow and some time it is appropriate. Start and end time set for a video is not a great feature for me but it's useful in some use cases.

Cons

It has ads blocker and does not show ads. So no monetization is possible. Creating a playlist is not very straight forward. A drag and drop feature will be great.

### "Music Teacher Review"

July 29, 2019

5.0

I love it! It takes the stress out of questionable material popping up. I use it every day and it is such an important part of my teaching that I paid out of my own pocket for the premium version.

Pros

What I like most about this product is that I can have my students watch a video without the fear of questionable ads or other video suggestions popping up.

Cons

Nothing, really. I guess if I had to be picky, I wish I could categorize the playlists better. It just isn't as user friendly as it could be.

### "Relevant Project Lead The Way Media"

June 25, 2019

5.0

It provides a direct link to relevant media for my students to focus their attention upon the concept being taught.

Pros

I like using a variety of relevant media to reinforce the concepts that I teach in my Project Lead The Way classes without the worry of pop-up ads that may be inappropriate for my students.

Cons

It is bothersome to go through my school system's technology department to ensure the link is truly appropriate for my students.

### "SafeShare.tv in the Classroom"

June 20, 2019

5.0

Pros

As a middle school math teacher, I find SafeShare.tv to be a wonderful tool that I use quite often. I find videos that are wonderful to help teach my students to understand concepts we are learning and I find that safeshare is the best way to share those videos with my students! I can find a video on YouTube and show it using safeshare so I don’t have to worry about ads popping up that may be inappropriate for a school setting and I can easily find my videos that I have saved. Also, I like that if I find a video but don’t want to keep the whole thing, I enjoy the features that allow me to crop the video just to what I need. That’s how I use safeshare the most often and have found that it’s incredibly beneficial to me as a teacher!

Cons

I currently have not run into in issues so far.

### "Disappointed Teacher"

July 8, 2019

5.0

I will continue using SafeShare so that the ads on YouTube do not become a distraction/inappropriate problem in my 4th grade classroom. It saves me so much headache! Unfortunately, to do this at no cost I will have to constantly be deleting videos from my SafeShare dashboard (which means I'll have to recreate the wheel and go find them on YouTube when I want to use them again).

Pros

I have absolutely LOVED using SafeShare in my 4th grade classroom for the past couple of years. The main reason that I use it is to eliminate ads on YouTube videos - which are often inappropriate for my 4th graders and can be very distracting.

Cons

I was very disappointed when SafeShare put a limit on how many videos you can have on your dashboard for free. As a teacher, I am not willing to pay to use SafeShare, which means I have to constantly be deleting videos from my account to add new ones.
