SkieCan I set a daily screen time limit or a limit for one app?
Not yet. Skie does not have daily screen time limits, per-app time limits or screen time reports at present. The team is working on them. What you can do today is use windows and remote lock, which end use at set times and give a hard stop whenever you choose.
We would rather say this plainly. If your main need is a fixed number of minutes a day, or one hour of one game, that is not a Skie feature yet. We are working on it and have no date to give.
What covers part of the need today is time-based rules. A window sets when apps are available, not how long they have been used. So rather than two hours of video a day, you can allow video from five to six on weekdays and in the afternoon at weekends. The device switches on its own.
The remote lock from the dashboard is the second tool. If a child has had enough of a screen, you lock it from your own phone. And if you want to reward good behaviour with more time, you change the window.
Many families find that windows are easier for a child to understand than a countdown. The rule is a time of day, not a running meter. There is no argument about whether the minutes were counted properly.
If you need a number of minutes and usage reports now, a product with those features may suit you better for that part, such as Google Family Link. You can compare it with Skie on tamper protection and decide which matters more.
Skie does not currently show which apps were used or for how long.
