Response from developer

Hi JTanJJ, Thanks so much for your feedback :) My name is Gavin, and I am the founder of ReDirect! I'm sorry that ReDirect didn't meet your quality expectations. I'm still in the midst of building out features and talking to parents about their needs and wants. I'm also currently pushing out a major polishing update within the next few weeks that will significantly improve the quality of the app. If you liked the idea, just not the execution, I'd love to speak with you! Please feel free to call or text me anytime at 3235422199.

FAQ

How does ReDirect work to manage screen time?

ReDirect locks selected apps behind learning sessions. Children complete these sessions and answer questions to earn 'breaks,' which unlock the apps for a set duration. Once the break ends, the apps automatically re-lock.

What kind of learning content does ReDirect offer?

ReDirect features short passages from classic public-domain books, tailored to the child's grade level. These are followed by AI-generated comprehension questions designed to be unique each time.

Can parents customize which apps are locked?

Yes, parents have full control to pick exactly which apps and categories are gated through Apple's Screen Time picker. They can change these settings anytime.

How many correct answers are needed to earn a break?

Parents can set the number of correct answers required to earn a break. For example, they can configure it so that '3 right answers = 15 minutes' of screen time.

Does ReDirect require a separate parent device?

No, ReDirect is designed to work on the child's iPhone alone. Parents can manage settings and controls directly from the child's device.

Is ReDirect safe for children?

ReDirect is designed for real families with focused, age-appropriate content and no social features like comments or direct messages. It uses Apple's official Family Controls and never sees what children do inside unlocked apps.

Does ReDirect have ads?

No, ReDirect does not contain advertisements. It is a completely ad-free experience for parents and children.

What devices is ReDirect compatible with?

ReDirect is available for iPhone and iPad devices. It utilizes Apple's Screen Time frameworks to function.
