I love the Screencoach app. It does have a learning curve, but the tutorials are helpful. The idea of rewarding money and additional screen time time as tasks are completed is amazing. I would like to see the following options. I'll update my review as I think of more suggestions. 1) Widget for the parents and kids to add to home screen to approve and submit completed tasks, and select modes. 2) Differentiate between the parents and child's account. Why is the Parent's account tracked (gems, tokens, usage time, etc.) similiar to the child's account.? 3) Under child's account, add an area to display additional tasks (separate from rewuired routine or tasks) that allows the child to chose from for extra tokens/gems. For example: read 20 mins, ride a bike, etc.

Every weekend I used to fight with my children all day to complete their assigned chores. The two full days I had with them on the weekend were filled constant battles and disciplines, I felt like my overall relationship with my children was suffering. Something needed to change. With ScreenCoach, I was able to create a master chore list and assign tokens (screen time) based on the intensity of the chores. I allow them an hour of free time, but after it is up, they have to complete chores to play their games. I love that it works across devices so I can enforce the screen time restrictions on both my son’s computer and his phone. The app allows children to earn bonuses for things like “done with out being asked” and “done with a good attitude”, so now they try their best to receive these bonuses. These bonuses helped my daughter go from whining about having to clean her guinea pig cage for hours, to her having it done before I’ve even finished my morning coffee. While this app did take a while to set up and get used to, the creator anticipated every question with helpful step by step guides, so I was able to figure everything out quickly. I highly recommend this app!
Best screen time app

I was looking for an app that allowed my kids to earn extra screen time by doing chores around the house, reading books, etc. I also wanted very specific control over how screen time was used. ScreenCoach was the only app I could find that claimed to do everything I wanted. The app far exceeded my expectations. ScreenCoach uses modes to apply the rules you want to the apps you want. Their default options are reasonable enough to get you started, but the level of customization avaliable is amazing! They also have quick-start learning cards to help you learn the app.To top off an excellent app, ScreenCoach’s technical support has been outstanding - so much better than any other app support I’ve contacted.My kids are using their screens within our rules with minimal complaining, and I’ve reduced my own screen time to just over an hour a day!
I really wanted to like it

I thought I had finally found the app I was looking for. Something that can help me manage kids’ screen time while allowing kids to earn time for chores or whatever I designated. And it does all this, but it’s so, so complicated. It was not user friendly at all and I could never quite get the hang of it, so I canceled after a month. To the developer’s credit, they offered to help me 1:1 and helped me cancel easily, but I just needed something more user-friendly. I’ll keep checking back in the hopes it becomes less clunky over time.
