Pair phones
Connect a parent phone with a child’s phone so ScreenGate can enforce earned time on the device.
Tester waitlist · internal build 1.9.0
Earn screen time by finishing real work.
ScreenGate helps families turn chores and responsibilities into earned device time. Kids prove the work. A parent or AI approves. Passing work unlocks the phone — on the device itself, not in a browser.
This is a waitlist, not an app store page. We will follow up with install steps when a tester spot is ready.

Before photo optional. After photo required.

After
Approved
Work passed. Screen time unlocked on this device.
Family flow
Pair phones. Prove the work. Unlock time.
ScreenGate is built for families: parents create tasks, kids show what they finished, and a passing result turns into device time.
Create a task
Parents set the chore or responsibility and can add an optional before photo.
Kids prove the work
When the job is done, the child takes an after photo in the app.
Parent or AI grades it
A parent reviews the photos, or AI checks the visible result against the task.
Passing work awards time
A passing result unlocks controlled device time. No pass, no extra screen time.
Why it is different
Not another “just block it” app.
Screen time becomes something you earn. The gate opens after real work, and it opens on the phone itself.
Verify, then unlock
Most controls only block. Chore lists only remind. ScreenGate checks that the work happened, then awards time.
Native device enforcement
On iPhone, ScreenGate uses Family Controls. On Android, it uses usage access plus an overlay. This is not a browser blocker.
Photo proof, parent or AI
Kids submit before and after photos. A parent can approve, or AI can grade the visible result.
