Optional Accessibility Service Usage

This app offers an optional Accessibility service to enhance functionality on certain devices:

Ensures Auto-Start: Helps launch the TVUsage app automatically when the device is powered on, specifically on devices that restrict auto-start.

Rest assured, this service does not track or record what you type. No personal data is collected or shared—its sole purpose is to improve app functionality locally. Enabling Accessibility is entirely optional, and the app remains fully usable without it.

We're always working to improve the app, and we'd love to hear your thoughts.
If you require any assistance, please send an email to [e-mail].

Ratings and reviews

Excellent app when it works! However, sometimes it allows locked apps to open without restriction. I can usually fix this by unplugging my TV and plugging it back in, or sometimes a soft restart does the trick. paid for the app hoping for technical support, but support team never responded back. don't pay for this

I found this the app as a potential alternative for the unstable built-in scree time management of Google TV for kids. Started promising, tried to set it up for a Kids Profile (as described on the app site), but even after completing every step that part is not working. I have sent an email to the support but no reaction... so if devs you see this maybe act on support requests?

UPDATE: The in-app purchase did not work for me. It kept telling me to "Add payment method", even though I already did that. The only options were: "It's done" (which didn't work) and "Cancel". UPDATE: My card expired on my other account that caused the block. I had to update/remove the expired card before the new card worked on my TV account.
