## What is Shield Family?

Shield Family turns everyday screen time into something your child is excited to earn — by learning.

Instead of nagging and timers, kids unlock screen time by answering quizzes and playing quick brain games across real subjects: reading, math, logic, money, coding and the world. The more they learn, the more time they earn — so screens stop being the daily fight and become a reward worth working for.

For parents, everything lives in one calm place:

- Learn to earn — age-tuned quizzes and brain games, with spaced repetition so it sticks.
- Healthy limits — set a daily time budget and bedtime, pause the time-wasters, and keep essentials like Phone and Maps always open.
- Real progress — brain points, daily and weekly trends, achievements and milestones.
- Family location — live location and gentle place alerts let you know they arrived safely.
- Private by design — built on Apple Screen Time, on device. No ads, no third-party tracking, never their messages or browsing.

One simple family plan covers every child — unlimited kids, all features. Shield Family is parent-purchased and parent-configured, protected by a parent PIN.
