ScreenManager

Screen Manager helps you pause the apps that steal your attention — short video, social, games — and resume them when you choose. It uses Apple Screen Time and Family Controls. It does not replace Settings → Screen Time. It adds groups, limits, schedules, breaks, and places on top of the apps you pick. When a rule trips, those apps are paused (hidden) by the system. When the rule lifts, or you resume them, they come back. WHO IT’S FOR • Anyone who opens apps on impulse and wants a pause first • Parents who need extra install, delete, and in-app purchase limits • People building a calmer phone without creating an account WHAT YOU CAN DO • App groups — put social, video, or games in one group and share one rule • Daily limits — pause a group when today’s minutes run out • Schedules — focus blocks by weekday and time • Breaks — rest after a stretch of use, then resume • Geo zones — restrict when you leave a safe place or enter a restrict zone • Reports — system Screen Time plus this app’s pause and resume log • Widgets and Shortcuts — pause or resume from Home Screen or Siri • App lock — Face ID / Touch ID or a 6-digit passcode every time you open Screen Manager ON YOUR DEVICE Rules, places, appearance, and the passcode hash stay on the iPhone. There is no sign-in and no developer server for your usage data. Screen Time charts are drawn on-device by Apple’s report extension. PLEASE KNOW • You must authorize Screen Time / Family Controls • Geo zones need Always location and may fire a little late • Screen Manager cannot hide its own battery or system Screen Time record • The app picker is provided by iOS; custom system app names are not available • On iOS 16, restored icons may not return to the original Home Screen slot (iOS 17.3+ is better) Screen Manager is a habit and focus aid. It is not a medical device and not ADHD treatment.
