Quick question. Will requiring parent approval of purchases stop my child installing you tube without my PIN?

Yes. You need the PIN to then download any app or free game.

Hi thanks for replying @whatnow41.
I have discovered that setting the age to young child meant he could install it You Tube but was blocked from using it

Ah excellent. I just started out with the parental controls on anyway, when you take them off they go back on again quite quickly, so you don't forget about it. I find the controls on the iPad so much harder to ensure they only have access to what I'm ok with.
