SkieOS for parents

A phone that grows with your child.

Start with the basics. As your child shows responsibility, you open more of the phone, one stage at a time, and stay in control the whole way.

How it works

Three steps, then you stay in charge.

  1. 1

    Set up the phone once

    Connect the phone to your account. It is set up one time and from then on follows your rules.

  2. 2

    Choose the first stage

    Pick the apps your child can use today. Everything else stays closed until you open it.

  3. 3

    Open more as they earn it

    Set goals, unlock apps when they succeed, and move to the next stage when they are ready.

Stages

A phone for every stage of growing up.

The stages are a starting point. You decide which apps open and when, and you can change anything at any time.

StageTypical focus
Class 6 – 7Study apps, calls, maps. No open browsing.
Class 8 – 9More independence, earned through goals.
Class 10 – 11Messaging when you allow it, with limits.
Class 12+Bigger goals, flexible limits, your trust.

What you control

Everything a parent needs. Nothing a child can undo.

Apps and focus

Allow or block any app, set time limits, and lock the phone to a study app when it matters.

Location and safety

Live location, a school-to-home travel view, and an emergency button that calls you.

Privacy first

Camera protection, no behavioural ads, and no sale of your child's data.

Questions

Answers for parents.

What is SkieOS for parents?

SkieOS turns an Android phone into a phone that grows with your child. You choose which apps are open, set goals that unlock more, see location, and change anything from your own dashboard.

Which phones does it work on?

Android phones and tablets running Android 12 or newer. The phone is set up once, and a phone that already holds personal data must be reset first, because Android only allows this level of control on a freshly set up device.

Can my child turn it off or get around it?

SkieOS runs as the Android device owner, so the rules are enforced by the system itself and are not an app your child can simply uninstall.

How do goals work?

You and your child set a goal that runs for 21 days. When it is completed, a new app or reward unlocks. The idea is that freedom follows effort.

Is my child's data sold or used for ads?

No. SkieOS does not show behavioural ads and does not sell your child's data.

Where do I sign up?

Create a parent account on the SkieOS parent dashboard. If you manage devices for a school, hostel or team, see SkieOS for enterprise instead.
