YOU’RE STILL IN CHARGE

A little structure.
Plenty of flexibility.

Real life doesn’t always follow a schedule. Your screen-time settings can keep up.

Make it your own

Your settings. Your PIN.

A private 6-digit PIN keeps the Parent Area in your hands.

Today can be different.

Add a little extra time or lift today’s cap. Tomorrow, your regular routine returns.

Choose the setup that fits.

Protected Child Setup with Apple Family Sharing, or Quick Setup without it.

Quick Setup can be removed or disabled by the device owner.
A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT WONDER

Good questions.
Simple answers.

Where do I install Screen Routine?

Install it on the iPhone or iPad your child uses. You’ll authorize Screen Time, choose a subscription, create your private parent PIN, and set up your family’s routine on that device.

How do play time and breaks work?

You choose a shared daily allowance, a play interval, and a break length. Screen Routine counts use of your selected apps and categories. When the play allowance is used, those apps are shielded during the break. When the daily allowance is exhausted, they stay locked until the next day, unless a parent changes today’s limit.

Do we need Apple Family Sharing?

Protected Child Setup uses a child Apple Account in your Family Sharing group for stronger parental controls. Quick Setup uses individual authorization and does not require Family Sharing. In Quick Setup, the device owner can delete the app or revoke authorization.

Can I make an exception for today?

Yes. In the PIN-protected Parent Area, “Just for today” lets you add time or temporarily lift the daily cap. You can restore the usual limit, and temporary exceptions expire at midnight. Play and break intervals still apply.

Is Screen Routine a subscription?

Yes. Subscription plans, local pricing, and any eligible free trial are shown in the app before you purchase. Trials and availability depend on the selected plan and eligibility. You can restore purchases in the app and manage your subscription in your App Store account.

Can my child remove the app?

Protected Child Setup helps prevent removal while parental authorization remains active. Parents can intentionally remove controls using their PIN. Quick Setup does not prevent the device owner from deleting the app or revoking Screen Time access.
