## What is Not My Kids?

Their phone sleeps too.

Not My Kids switches off the apps that keep your child awake — automatically, every night, at the time you choose.

Set a bedtime window once. Pick the apps. From then on those apps simply stop opening at bedtime, and come back in the morning. No nightly argument, no confiscating the phone at the bedroom door.

REAL BLOCKING, NOT A REMINDER
Not My Kids uses Apple's own Screen Time controls, the same system built into iOS. Blocked apps do not open. A notification your child can swipe away is not a bedtime. This is.

KEEPS WORKING WHEN YOU ARE NOT WATCHING
Bedtime still runs if the app is closed, force-quit, or the phone is restarted.

BEHIND A PARENT PASSCODE
Every setting sits behind a passcode you choose, with a lockout after repeated wrong tries, so the schedule cannot be quietly undone.

SET UP IN ABOUT A MINUTE
A few questions about your child's age and how bedtime goes now, and the app suggests a schedule. Drag the dial to whatever actually suits your family.

SEE WHAT REALLY HAPPENED
Insights shows the hours protected, your run of consecutive nights, and how often a blocked app was reached for and refused.

One honest note about that last part: a phone cannot tell whether a child fell asleep. We do not show sleep scores or sleep hours, because we would be inventing them. Everything in Insights is something the device genuinely observed.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account. No sign-up. No ads. No tracking. Your bedtime settings and app choices stay on your device.

Not My Kids asks for Screen Time permission, which is what makes real blocking possible. A subscription is required after the free trial.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.0.2 — 2026-09-06

Fixes a problem that could leave you stuck on the subscribe screen after paying. If your Apple Account already had a subscription — after reinstalling, for example — the app now recognises it and lets you straight in.

Also in this update:
- Setup can no longer finish without Screen Time permission, which is what makes blocking actually work.
- If Screen Time access is ever missing or switched off, the home screen now warns you and offers a one-tap fix.
- Subscription details now show a cancelled plan correctly, with the date access ends, and free-trial days remaining.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-08-31

This update fixes a setup problem that could leave bedtime switched off after subscribing.

- Setup now confirms Screen Time access before it finishes, so bedtime is always actually running when you reach the home screen.
- If Screen Time access is ever missing or switched off, the home screen says so plainly and offers a one-tap fix. The same control in Settings is now tappable.
- Free trials now show the days remaining and exactly what happens next, instead of reading like a plan you have already paid for.
- A cancelled subscription now correctly shows that it will not renew, and the date your access ends.

### 1.0.0 — 2026-08-29

No release notes.
