Setting Screen Time Limits

Screen time limits help children develop healthy digital habits by capping daily device usage.

Setting a Daily Limit

  1. Open the child's profile from your dashboard
  2. Go to Controls > Screen Time
  3. Toggle Enable Screen Time Limit
  4. Set the daily maximum (e.g., 2 hours)

When the limit is reached, the Companion app displays a notification and can lock the device.

Scheduled Downtime

  2. Set start and end times
  3. Choose which days to apply the schedule

Overriding Limits

Parents can grant temporary extensions from the dashboard. Go to the child's profile and click Grant Extra Time.
