Screen Time

What Screen Time is

Screen Time is a device monitoring and management service with content filtering, screen-time schedules, app blocking, activity reports, and location tracking. It is available on the web, iOS, and Android. The Basic – Monitoring plan covers one device per child, while Premium – Managing, Tracking, Filtering and GPS supports up to five devices per account; the listed device limit is five. The plan names indicate different scopes, with Basic focused on monitoring and Premium covering management, tracking, filtering, and GPS. Screen Time uses a freemium model, with a free plan and a 7-day trial. No plan prices are listed. The maker is also called Screen Time and is based in Bristol, United Kingdom. It was founded in 2013. The service combines several family device-management functions in one offering, so prospective users can consider whether monitoring a single device per child meets their needs or whether they need the broader Premium scope across multiple devices.
