ow on iPad Rulely works on iPad as well as iPhone. More than one child Add every child in your family under one plan. Simpler start One screen to choose who Rulely is for: your child, yourself, or your child's phone. Block apps and their websites together Pick a whole category, like Social, and its websites are blocked too. Easier pairing Two clear steps. Codes refresh on their own, and you can pick or change a time if your child's phone isn't with you. Extra time, handled calmly After the one-minute pause, extra time starts on its own. Keeping the limit is always one tap. Know when something's off Clearer setup status, and an alert if Screen Time is turned off on your child's phone. Plus clearer passcode steps, calmer asks for more time, and reliability fixes.

Your child now manages their own screen time — within the limits you set. Instead of one countdown that drains all day, their daily time comes in blocks they start themselves. Before each one, they see what it costs their evening. Most kids spend their whole allowance the moment they get home, then spend the rest of the night asking you for more. This changes that. You set the rules once. Nothing changes on your end. You still set a daily limit and a bedtime. We now show you what that actually looks like as a day — how much screen time, how many hours locked — while you're setting it, not after. Your week, at a glance. Your home screen now shows how each day went: when the limit landed, how long it held, and when your child chose to use their time. Setup is faster. Scan a QR code instead of typing anything. Clearer instructions at every step, and codes no longer expire while you're mid-setup. Also in this release Requests for more time now reach you reliably. Extra time you grant applies right away. And if you're setting this up for yourself rather than for a child, you can now do that.
