This app helps you manage screen time by locking distracting apps until you earn time in them through productive activities. You can set earning and fun apps, ratios, and daily limits for yourself or your child.
1.1.2
October 10, 2026
What's new in 1.1.2 • Bug: switching Settings to "My child" without a PIN changed the title and then simply forgot to ask for a PIN. Fix: the PIN screen now appears straight away, as promised. • Bug: when a parent approved the unlock with Ask to Buy, the "trial has ended" screen didn't notice and stayed put. Fix: it now closes the moment the approval arrives. Restore Purchase closes it too. • Bug: offline, the unlock button just spun forever, full of hope. Fix: it now says it can't reach the App Store and offers Try again. • Bug: a failed purchase check showed an error message only a compiler could love. Fix: plain words instead. • Bug: with only bonus time and nothing earned yet, the ring sat empty while announcing that fun apps were unlocked. Fix: the ring now agrees with itself. • Bug: "System Default" in the language list refused to learn any language. Fix: it's translated now.

Unlock Minua permanently after your free trial.
Minua allows you to designate 'earning' apps (e.g., educational, meditation) and 'fun' apps (e.g., social media, games). Time spent in earning apps unlocks time for fun apps, based on a ratio you set.
The earning ratio can be set anywhere from 1:1 to 12:1. For example, at a 6:1 ratio, six minutes of earning time unlocks one minute of fun app usage.
Yes, Minua can be set up for yourself to break scroll habits. You can lock distracting apps behind productive ones, and you have the flexibility to change your rules in settings.
Minua is designed with parental controls, including a 4-digit PIN for settings and purchases. On Family Sharing devices, it requires your Apple Account approval to prevent your child from disabling it.
No, Minua is built on privacy and works offline. All your settings and screen time balances stay on your device, and it does not use servers, tracking, or analytics.
Minua is available for iPhone and iPad devices.
