Your kid finishes their iPhone time, walks to the PS5, and starts a fresh clock. You set limits on three devices but manage none of them together. Sound familiar? OneLimit gives your family one daily screen time budget that counts down across every device - iPhone, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, and Windows PC. When time runs out on one, it runs out on all of them. No loopholes. HOW IT WORKS Set a daily budget for each child (say, 2 hours on weekdays, 3 on weekends). OneLimit tracks usage across all linked devices in near-real-time. On iOS your child sees a budget ring that fills up as they play and browse. When the budget is spent, every device locks. Simple. KEY FEATURES - Unified budget: One pool of time shared across iPhone, PS5, Switch, Xbox, and Windows. No more device-hopping. - Budget ring: A clear, color-coded gauge shows exactly how much time is left. Green, amber, red - your child always knows where they stand. - Streaks: Kids earn streaks for staying within their daily budget. Positive reinforcement, not just restriction. - Ask for more time: Your child can request extra minutes directly from their app. You approve or deny with one tap. - Emergency lock: Lock all devices instantly from the dashboard. One tap, no confirmation needed. Unlock when you are ready. - Bonus time: Grant +30 minutes with a single tap when plans change. - Activity log: See which devices were used, for how long, and when. No guesswork. - Schedules: Set weekday and weekend budgets, bedtime lockout windows, and per-device overrides. - Vacation mode: Relax the limits without deleting your settings. Toggle it on, toggle it off. - Bedtime countdown: Automatic lockout windows keep devices off at night. - Co-parenting ready: Designed for households where both parents need visibility. - Widget: Check each child's remaining budget from your iPhone home screen without opening the app. - Daily summary: A warm "good night" notification recaps the day. "Today was a 2h 14m day. Busiest: PS5." - Weekly email: A concise weekly report delivered to your inbox (optional). SUPPORTED PLATFORMS - iPhone / iPad - PlayStation 5 - Nintendo Switch - Xbox (Series X|S, One) - Windows PC PRIVACY FIRST OneLimit collects only what is necessary to track screen time budgets.
