-
Less negotiating
-
More curiosity
-
More initiative
For families with kids 7 to 11
A fairer way to say yes.
Start with a sure yes, then let extra time prove itself.
- 01
Set the floor
Choose daily screen time they get no matter what.
- 02
Add the upside
Episodes, Mind Games and Chores add the extra, up to what you allow.
- 03
Minutes do the work
Chosen apps open with time left, then close at zero.
Small efforts. Real rewards.
Extra minutes come from three kinds of effort your child can understand: learn something, solve something, or help with something.
-
1 episode = +20 min Learn
Episodes
Your child reads or listens to a short illustrated piece about how something works, then answers a few questions. Five right out of eight at ages 7‑8, or six out of ten at 9‑11, earns the minutes, and wrong answers are explained afterward.
how a barcode scan works, why prices end in .99, or how volcanoes work.
-
1 puzzle = +20 min Think
Mind Games
One logic puzzle a day, with up to 30 minutes of play. Each game keeps its own difficulty level and rises as your child gets better.
Sudoku, Mines, Nonogram, Traffic Jam, or Bridges.
-
the day's chores = +20 min Help
Chores
Use your own list, in your own words, and say how long each task takes. Your child starts a timer, does the task, and the minutes land.
unload the dishwasher, take out the trash, or feed the dog.
Those are the prices on a 60-minute day, split evenly between the three. In the parent app you can change how much a day can earn and what each one is worth.
Real episodes
Tiny reads, real questions
These are real episodes from the app: short illustrated pieces on popcorn, camouflage, GPS, barcodes, and the strange mechanics behind everyday life. Your child can read one or listen to the narration, then earns minutes by answering questions, not sitting through a lecture.

For parents
Their time stays theirs.
KidCommit is a parental control app for families with children aged 7 to 11, where extra screen time is earned. It is built on one simple promise: a child's normal screen time is never taken away or held hostage. They already have that time, even on a day they earn nothing. Extra time is a fair exchange the child controls, earned by learning, thinking, or helping. You keep the limits: the apps, the schedule, and the numbers that set the ceiling.
Do not fight a child's desire for more screen time. Use it. Read our philosophy 
A Tuesday
On Tuesday your child has 60 minutes that are theirs. They want more time in the game they are into, so they listen to an episode about how volcanoes work and answer the questions. They get enough right, KidCommit adds 20 minutes, and the game opens.
You set the ceiling.
By default a day can reach double what you give: set 60 minutes and it stops at 120. If you want a different balance, set how much can be earned on top, and the day stops at your number instead.
Earned-but-unspent minutes go into a bank that never expires, and banked time still cannot cross the cap.
The basics are covered
Everything a parental-control app does is included, with earned screen time built on top.

- Optional location is off by default and only turns on if a parent turns it on.
- Delete a child or the whole account in the app, immediately.

Questions
Straight answers.
Is this just another parental-control app?
No. KidCommit is earned screen time: your child already has guaranteed daily time, and extra minutes come from learning, thinking, or helping. You still set the limits, but the deal starts with a yes.
How does KidCommit open and close apps?
KidCommit opens the apps you chose while there is time left and closes them when there is not. On iPhone, blocking works through Apple's Screen Time with Family Controls. On Android, it works through an accessibility service.
Can my child turn it off?
Changing settings or unlinking KidCommit on the child's phone needs your Parent PIN. On Android, KidCommit also locks the phone's own settings, and a grown-up opens them with the PIN. No app can rule out every workaround, a factory reset for example, so the parent app shows you when protection is off or the phone has gone quiet. On iPhone, it holds as long as the Screen Time passcode you set stays yours.
Can a child earn time endlessly?
No. They can earn up to the same amount as the guaranteed daily time. If you set 60 minutes, the day is capped at 120, and nothing can raise that cap.
What happens with no internet?
Limits keep working for today and tomorrow using the last rules the phone received.
Do children see ads?
No. There are no ads, no third-party analytics, and no trackers in either app.
What happens if the subscription ends?
The limits come off on the day it ends, and your child's phone works as usual. We remind you two days before. If a renewal payment fails, everything keeps working while the App Store or Google Play retries it.
What do you store about a child?
Only what a child's day needs: a nickname, a birth month and year, a picture from our set, the minutes and progress, and rough location only if you turn it on. The nickname does not have to be a real name, and the picture is one of our drawings, never a photo. You can delete a child or the whole account in the app, and it happens immediately.
Can both parents use KidCommit?
Yes. A family can include two adults with equal rights, and the second parent joins by invitation.
What devices do we need?
Both the parent app and the kid app run on iPhone and Android.
