Math for screen time. Pickles locks the apps you pick — Roblox, YouTube, anything — until your kid earns minutes by solving math. Right answers bank time; wrong ones earn nothing. Built by two parents tired of negotiating screen time. How it works — three steps, then it just runs: - Pick the apps to gate. - Hand the phone over: a round of problems at the level you set. - Each right answer is a minute. Banked minutes drain only while the gated apps are open. When the jar empties, they lock again. A math level for every grade, K–5. Set the grade and the operations (+, −, ×, ÷) — from adding within 10 to times tables and multi-digit ×/÷. Real problems, not flashcards: word problems, number bonds, ten-frames, number lines, the hundred chart, and more. No accounts. No ads. No tracking. Everything runs on the device — no sign-in, no cloud, no analytics, no third-party SDKs. A 4-digit PIN gates parent settings; that's the whole account system. Blocking uses Apple's Family Controls, so even we can't see which apps you picked. Free. No subscription, no upsells, no in-app purchases. Just one device, one PIN, and Mr. Pickles.
