Option to prevent playlist manager access with biometric auth #96

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When you want to give the app to children (or a third person), at least in Latin America, the user expects his child (or son) to be distracted by watching channels. It is an alternative to watching Youtube videos. However, it would be great if, to avoid problems, access to the playlist manager (or settings) would be restricted with a biometric authentication system.

Describe the solution you'd like Inspired by "parental control", there should be an option to block access to the playlist manager and thus prevent users from accessing banned channels (e.g. adult channels).

Describe alternatives you've considered Just add an option from the settings. When activated, authentication (fingerprint, facial recognition or PIN) is requested.

Additional context The "parental control" is common in televisions that offer channels that are not suitable for all audiences.
