Calm screen time for families
Screen time kids
earn, not beg for.
ScreenTime Nanny turns minutes into a currency your kids actually understand. Fun apps cost credits. Reading, learning and chores earn them. You set the rules once — the balance teaches the rest. It’s allowance, rebuilt for the screen age.

How it works
Set it up once.
Then let the balance do the parenting.
Pick the apps
Choose which apps are fun (cost credits) and which are good for them (earn credits). Set a rate per minute.
Kids earn
Reading, learning apps and real-life quests like "make your bed" top up their balance — no nagging required.
They spend
Games and social cost credits by the minute. When the balance runs out, the app gently locks itself.
You watch it balance
See what's earned, spent and left — with weekly trends and a calm Sunday digest. Adjust any time.

Everything you need
Powerful for parents.
Effortless for kids.
App ratings
Decide what costs and what earns, per minute. Turn entertainment into something kids spend thoughtfully.
Real-life quests
Chores and good habits pay out credits. "Help your brother, +100." Effort in the real world earns screen time.
Smart shield
When the balance hits zero, fun apps lock automatically at the OS level — no willpower, no arguments.
Calm reports
Earned, spent and balance at a glance, with 7-day trends and a weekly Sunday digest. Insight without anxiety.
PIN-locked parent zone
Settings, ratings and quests live behind a parent PIN. Kids get their own space; you keep control.
Bedtime wind-down
Set quiet hours and everything fades to off. Mornings start calmer when nights end on time.
Two spaces, one app
A Play Zone for them.
A quiet dashboard for you.
Kids open straight into their wallet — what they have, what earns, what it costs. You open the Parents zone for ratings, quests, reports and security. Each side stays in its lane.
- Live balance — kids always know exactly where they stand.
- Weekly trend & digest — a calm summary, not a stream of alerts.
- Works across devices — one balance per child, everywhere.
Loved by calmer households
The screen-time fight,
quietly retired.
"First app that actually ended the negotiation. My 9-year-old reads to earn TikTok time now. I didn't ask him to — the balance did."
"The shield is the magic. When credits run out, games just stop — no me being the bad guy. Setup took five minutes."
"Calm, beautiful, and it respects privacy. The Sunday digest is the only screen-time report I've ever actually read."

Questions
Good to know
It builds on Apple's Screen Time framework. When a child's balance runs out, the OS itself shields the chosen fun apps with a gentle lock screen — reliable and tamper-resistant, with no background spying.
No. ScreenTime Nanny works on a shared family device or each child's own phone. Every child keeps a single balance that follows them across the devices you set up.
Yes. Activity and balances stay on the device. We don't sell data, show ads, or track your children across the web. The app is designed to be COPPA-aligned from the ground up.
Kids get the Play Zone — their wallet, what earns, what costs, and quests. Parents get a PIN-locked dashboard for app ratings, quests, reports and security. The two never mix.
After the 14-day free trial, Premium is $9.99/month. You'll be reminded before any charge, and you can cancel anytime in two taps through the App Store.
Always. Tune what apps cost and earn, add or retire quests, and change bedtime whenever family life shifts. Changes take effect immediately.
