Screen time & agreed app times

See app time, then pause when the agreed time is up

Set a daily time for each app together, then see the remaining time on both screens.

Illustration: at an evening desk, a mom and her daughter set app time together while looking at a timer dial on a phone — Phone face-down during homework — you set app time limits together.

When the agreed time ends, their phone shows it

A notice covers that app. Other apps still work, and it opens again the next day.

Worth knowing: If usage access or display-over-apps permission is off, records or the full-screen reminder may not work correctly. Battery-saver settings can also delay updates.
