FawnGuard helps parents build healthy screen-time habits for their kids — without the guesswork. Set a daily limit, block the apps that get in the way, and reward the good stuff. Everything is managed from the parent's phone. SCREEN TIME LIMITS THAT ACTUALLY STICK • Set a daily screen-time limit for each child. • When the time is up, FawnGuard shields the device using Apple's Screen Time technology. • Kids can ask for more time; you approve or deny right from your phone. BLOCK & LIMIT APPS • Limit specific apps or whole categories. • Set a 0-minute limit to block an app entirely. • Changes sync to your child's device automatically. SCHEDULE DOWNTIME & BEDTIME • Create school-time and bedtime windows that block the device automatically. • Great for homework focus and a calmer night routine. REWARD GOOD HABITS • Kids complete tasks you set (chores, homework, reading) to earn coins. • They redeem coins for bonus minutes or a short app unlock in the Reward Shop. • Turns "screen time" into a positive, motivating system instead of a fight. ONE DASHBOARD FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY • Manage multiple children from a single dashboard. • Invite a co-parent so you're both on the same page. • See how screen time is being spent with clear usage reports. PEACE OF MIND • A child can send an SOS alert with their location to parents in an emergency. • A parental PIN protects the settings on your child's device. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • FawnGuard is built for parents to manage their own family. • We do not read your child's messages, browse their social media, or track their location in the background. • Your family's data stays in your private account. Requires iOS 17 or later. Screen-time enforcement uses Apple's Family Controls (Screen Time) framework and requires granting Screen Time permission on the child's device.

Install it on your iPhone and on your child's iPhone, choose Parent / Guardian or Child device, and link them with a one-time code. OmoSafe runs openly on your child's phone, and your child can see exactly what you can see. HEALTHY SCREEN TIME (uses Apple's Screen Time) • Daily limits, app and category limits, and a bedtime that locks apps overnight • Your child can ask for more time, and you approve or decline from your phone • Lock now for dinner, homework and family time • You choose the apps on your child's iPhone with Apple's own picker. Apple keeps the exact minutes per app private, so OmoSafe shows approximate usage on iPhone. A SAFER INTERNET • Block adult websites with Apple's Screen Time web filter, plus single websites you choose • SafeSearch for Google, Bing and DuckDuckGo, and YouTube Restricted Mode, through a family-safe DNS setting that your child switches on once on their iPhone (OmoSafe shows how) LOCATION AND SAFE ZONES • Live family map with each phone's battery and last update • Safe zones with arrival and departure alerts (1 per child on Basic, unlimited on Family) • Scheduled zones, such as school hours on weekdays • Location history, so you can see where your child has been today SOS ON EVERY PLAN • Your child taps Get help now and every guardian gets an urgent alert with their location, repeated about every 5 minutes for 30 minutes if no one responds • Trusted adults who confirm their email also get an SOS email with the location • OmoSafe is not an emergency service and never calls emergency services.
