What Is It?

Screen Time is a parental control SaaS app for both Android and iOS, designed to help parents monitor and manage children’s screen time, app usage, and location information, while encouraging healthy digital habits.

Core Features

The product is divided into two main areas: monitoring and management. On the monitoring side, it offers app usage tracking, daily reports, web and YouTube viewing history (some features are Android-only). On the management side, it supports daily time limits, bedtime and homework schedules, instant device pause, app approval and web filtering (Android-only), as well as its distinctive “Tasks & Chores” reward system and “Free Play” temporary override mode. It also provides GPS location tracking, geofencing, and route tracking.

Plans and Pricing

Screen Time uses a subscription model. A basic free plan is available, offering monitoring features only and limited to one device per child. The Premium plan costs $6.99/month and unlocks all management and location features, supporting up to 5 devices per account, with monthly, semi-annual, and annual billing options. Payments are handled through Stripe, with support for credit cards, PayPal, and iTunes.

Pros and Cons

Pros: The free plan provides basic monitoring capabilities; the instant pause and task reward system are very well suited to parenting scenarios; 24/7 customer support is available, and the refund policy is extremely friendly. Cons: Core control features such as app blocking and web filtering rely heavily on Android, with clear limitations on iOS; the Premium plan’s 5-device limit may not be enough for families with multiple children or many devices; there is no API or developer support.

Who It’s For

Best suited for parents who need to manage their children’s screen time, track their location, and use task-based incentives to help build better habits—especially users with Android devices. iOS users should be aware of the feature limitations.
