The problem
How it works
today
Every parent knows this.
Every day. Again and again.
The dog is waiting
"Just 5 more minutes!"
This sentence comes up about 4 times a day
  • ✕
    Arguments when it is time to turn screens off
  • ✕
    Frustration and tears
  • ✕
    Parents stuck in the role of police
  • ✕
    Tension across the whole family
02
The shift
What if the child
decides on their own?
🤝
Natural acceptance of the rules
😌
Fewer emotional quarrels
☮️
More peace at home
💪
Real responsibility
When children decide on their own, they accept the rules as theirs.
Not as an order, but as a choice.
03
How it works
How do
bones 🦴 work?
  • 🦴
    The child gets bones for the whole week
    Based on age and parent settings
  • 🔄
    Automatic weekly refill
    At the time the parent chooses
  • 🐕
    The child feeds the dog → and goes to the screen
    1 bone = 1 hour of screen time
  • 🔔
    The dog barks → time is over
    A notification instead of an argument
⚠️
The app does not block anything — it is a tool, not control.
Time is running
Time is running, the dog is eating!
04
Dog with tasks
Bonus bones
Out of
bones?
The child completes a task set by a parent such as watering flowers or cleaning their room and earns one extra bone.
They learn to plan, manage time, and take responsibility for it.
🌱Water the flowers = +1 bone
🧹Clean the room = +1 bone
💡The parent chooses the tasks

Parent view
For
parents
You set automatic weekly refills for each child separately, add bonus tasks, and keep track of the whole family’s screen time.
Screen Patrol does not lock anything. It trusts children, and they respond to that trust.

Why it works
The science behind Screen Patrol
🧠
Autonomy
Children who choose for themselves show much less resistance to rules. Their own decision leads to their own responsibility.
⚖️
Resource management
Bones work like pocket money. Children learn that time is limited and needs to be managed.
📅
Planning
When should I use a bone? Now, or later tonight? These small decisions train the mind for bigger challenges later.
→ This is not control. It is a life skill.
