How can my kids earn more screen time?

Once a child’s Free Time is used up, they can either complete an activity (set by their parents or by themselves) to earn tokens, that convert into Screen time (token time), or wait until the next day when their Free Time refreshes.


Children can add activities from any device that has ScreenCoach installed. They may choose from the default activity list or create a custom activity, assigning the number of tokens they feel the activity deserves.


Parents review and approve activities. Once approved, children earn tokens, which convert into additional screen time (token time). Any unused tokens are automatically carried forward and remain available on future days until they are used.


Trusted children can automatically approve activities and earn tokens and gems to their approved trust level, allowing them to manage screen time more independently while staying within parent-set limits.
