## What is Their Mode?

Lend your iPhone or iPad with the apps you choose.

Create a saved space for a child, choose the apps they may use, and keep supported private apps outside their space. Your app choices and session length are remembered, ready for the next time you share.

Start their space, then hand over your device. Return to normal access with parent verification using Face ID, Touch ID or a Parent PIN. Their Mode uses Apple's Screen Time controls to restrict supported apps outside their space. When a timed session ends, supported app access pauses until a parent verifies.

TRY THEIR MODE FREE

• One saved space for your chosen apps
• Complete 15-minute sessions
• Privacy, parent security and recovery features included

THEIR MODE UNLIMITED

One purchase. No subscription.

• Save unlimited spaces for different children and routines
• Choose longer sessions for trips, meals and quiet time
• Keep their space on until you end it

Unlimited is an optional one-time in-app purchase. The price is shown before you buy, and you can restore your purchase using the same Apple Account. Privacy, parent security and recovery features are included in both versions.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Their Mode has no advertising or analytics SDKs and does not require a Their Mode account. Profile names, photos, session choices and Apple-provided activity selections are stored locally on your device.

Update checks connect to Apple's public App Store listing. Saved spaces, photos and app selections are not sent with those requests.

Screen Time access is required so Their Mode can apply the restrictions you choose. The app explains this before showing Apple's permission request.

Apple controls which system apps appear in its Family Activity picker. Some essential functions may remain available when iOS or iPadOS does not offer them for selection.

Their Mode is designed for temporary use on a parent or carer's own iPhone or iPad. It is not a child-monitoring service or a replacement for Apple Family Sharing.
