What It Does

Earn Screen Time

Children earn fun app access by spending time in learning apps chosen by their parent. Configurable ratios from 1:1 to 12:1.

Apple Screen Time API

Uses Apple's built-in FamilyControls, ManagedSettings, and DeviceActivity frameworks for reliable, OS-level app restrictions.

Allowed Hours

Parents set a daily time window (e.g. 3pm-8pm) when fun apps can be unlocked. Outside these hours, fun apps stay locked.

Daily Reset

The time bank resets at midnight each day. Children start fresh every morning with a clean balance.

PIN-Protected Settings

All parent settings are locked behind a 4-digit PIN with lockout after failed attempts. Children cannot change the rules.

No Account Required

No email, no sign-up, no cloud sync. Set up the app and hand the device to your child. Everything stays on-device.
