## What is Screen Time?

It's that simple.

This app is free and made by a concerned parent.

### 1/5 — Please help me delete this app

*2024-04-27*

This app has taken over my phone. I’ve deleted it and it still shuts down my social apps. It’s awful!!! Anyone out there?

### 1/5 — ???

*2022-01-22*

What? Dosent do anything

### 1/5 — Не работает

*2021-12-12*

Не работает

### 1/5 — G

*2020-06-07*

My kid knows his password on his iPad

### 1/5 — Did not work

*2019-11-07*

Installed the app, allowed everything that popped up as I set it up. I tested it for 1 minute timer, opened one of the kids games and started playing. After what felt a lot longer then a minute nothing had happened so I checked the app and apparently the alarm had gone off but no notification showed up and I was still able to play the game. Great idea just wish it worked.

### 5/5 — Très utile

*2019-07-25*

Permet de s'auto régulariser en se fixant un objectif.
Simple et fonctionnel, je valide !

### 1/5 — Alarm does not work

*2019-04-18*

This app was no more than a timer. Didn’t  make phone hard to use after timer stopped and alarm didn’t work. Disappointed.

### 2/5 — Only if your kid doesn’t know your code...

*2019-01-14*

Idea is great, but if the kid knows your iPad code they can just put it in. Wish it had a separate code that you enter here that is different than the passcode.

### 1/5 — It does not work

*2018-09-20*

Exactly the app I was looking for. But it locks nothing!

### 2/5 — Gute Idee aber funktioniert nicht

*2018-07-13*

Die Idee an sich ist gut und in älteren Versionen war auch die Umsetzung sehr gut. Nur leider bekomme ich keine Mitteilungen von der App weshalb sie leider unbrauchbar ist. Trotzdem 2 Sterne da die Idee gut ist
