Updated for iOS 17. The app allows you to impose a limit on the maximum volume of the iPhone / iPad. Your kid always plays video at full volume? It's not a problem anymore! From today, YOU control the iPhone/iPad's speaker volume, not your child! Get back to a quiet home with peaceful kids by protecting their ears (and yours!). This is the ONLY app able to limit the volume on iOS 17, and is also the simplest volume manager! This app works in the background. Warning: the volume limit only works while this app is still open in the background, if your child knows how to kill this app, it won't work. This app works better on younger kids. The application has been specially designed for parents of children with Autism Spectrum, Asperger, ADHD, Down Syndrome & other development delays or sensory issues.
