Quiet hours

Define time windows (night, school, homework) when blocked apps stay locked, even if your child has minutes in the bank.

Why

Some periods — bedtime, class, homework — deserve to be protected from entertainment, no matter how much your child has "earned". Quiet hours are an absolute protection, not a negotiable quota.

How it works

You define one or more time windows (e.g. 9pm–7am, Mon–Fri). During those windows, opening a blocked app shows "Try again later" instead of the quiz — even if your child has 30 minutes banked.

Apps not on the blocklist (phone, messages, school apps) stay accessible. Quiet hours only apply to the blocklist.

Presets

  • School nights: 9pm–7am, Mon–Fri.
  • Every night: 9pm–7am every day.
  • Custom: create your own windows.
  • For teens, slightly later hours (10pm–6am) are often better respected than overly strict ones.
  • You can create multiple windows to block during school (8am–3pm, Mon–Fri) in addition to night.
