PaceOut

PaceOut helps families make screen time calmer, clearer, and easier to manage together. Parents can create a Pace Plan with a daily allowance, broad paced areas, wrap-up warnings, bedtimes, and scheduled pauses. Children get a simple view of their own pace, with clear time remaining and gentle warnings before it is time to stop. When plans change, a child can ask for more time. Parents can review requests, add time, pause screen time, and send a short note from their own device. PaceOut keeps both sides informed without turning every screen-time decision into an argument. KEY FEATURES - Parent and child experiences designed for their different needs - Daily allowances and calm wrap-up warnings - Weekday and weekend bedtime plans - Broad pacing areas with exact Screen Time selections kept on the child device - Child requests for more time - Parent controls for pausing, adding time, and sending a note - Multi-child family overview and setup health - Pace history, scheduled pauses, notifications, widgets, Apple Watch surfaces, and Siri Shortcuts where available - In-app account deletion, purchase restoration, and subscription management PRIVACY BY DESIGN PaceOut uses Apple technologies including Family Controls, CloudKit, StoreKit, Sign in with Apple, and App Groups. Exact app and category selection tokens remain on the child device. PaceOut uses privacy-restricted, anonymous product analytics to improve the app, but does not use advertising, cross-app tracking, session replay, or analytics profiles. PaceOut Premium is an optional auto-renewable annual subscription. The current price, billing period, and any eligible introductory offer are shown by Apple before purchase. Subscriptions can be restored in PaceOut and managed from Apple Account settings. Screen Time controls require compatible Apple devices, Family Sharing or supported individual authorization, and permission on the child device. Feature availability can vary by device and Apple account configuration.
