Turn screen time into brain time. One grade-level question a day unlocks their apps — you set the schedule and limits, and watch what they learn.
Answer one question. Unlock your apps.
ClimbBrain turns your child's favorite apps into a daily reason to learn. Before the fun begins, they answer one grade-level quiz question. Get it right, and their apps unlock for the day — within the hours you choose.
HOW IT WORKS
• Your child opens ClimbBrain and sees which apps are shielded
• They answer one question matched to their grade level
• A correct answer lifts the shield until the day's allowed window closes
• Tomorrow, a fresh question starts the day
REAL APP BLOCKING, BUILT ON APPLE'S SCREEN TIME
ClimbBrain uses Apple's Family Controls technology to genuinely shield the apps you pick — not just an honor system. Choose exactly which apps and categories are blocked, and the shield lifts only when your child earns it.
QUESTIONS THAT GROW WITH YOUR CHILD
• 15 topics across STEM, Humanities, and Life Skills — from mental math and word problems to geography, vocabulary, money sense, and everyday judgment
• Four difficulty levels spanning kindergarten through high school
• Reading passages build comprehension, not just recall
• You choose the level and toggle the topics that fit your child
PARENTS STAY IN CONTROL
• Passcode-protected parent dashboard, with optional Face ID or Touch ID
• Set separate weekday and weekend unlock windows
• Cap how much screen time can be earned each day
• Plan special days — holidays, snow days, or a whole vacation — with their own schedule
• The dashboard re-locks automatically when you step away
SEE WHAT THEY'RE LEARNING
The stats screen shows questions attempted and passed each day, accuracy by subject, and whether today's question has been answered — so screen time becomes a window into progress.
MADE FOR FAMILIES
• Quick setup: create a child profile, pick a level and topics, choose apps to shield, set a passcode
• A gentle grace period means a right answer is never wasted
• Encouraging, kid-friendly design — no shame, just a small climb before the fun
