QuietTime: Screen Time Limit

David Arthur Software

About this app

QuietTime sets healthy screen time limits for your kids with simple, scheduled quiet hours — and it runs 100% on your device. No accounts, no tracking, no ads, completely free.

A private, easy parental control app: choose quiet hours for school nights and weekends, and the phone or tablet locks itself automatically. No complicated dashboards, no cloud, no sign-up.

SCHEDULED SCREEN TIME & QUIET HOURS
Set separate block times for weekdays and weekends, and pick which days count as the weekend (Fri/Sat for school nights, or Sat/Sun). The device locks on schedule, every day.

BLOCKS GAMES & FULLSCREEN APPS
Unlike many screen time apps, the QuietTime block screen stays on top of games, videos and fullscreen apps — it appears within seconds of the quiet hour starting, even mid-game.

PIN-PROTECTED PARENTAL CONTROLS
A 6-digit PIN stops children changing settings or disabling the app. Set a recovery password during setup so you can always reset a forgotten PIN.

ALLOWED APPS DURING QUIET HOURS
Choose which apps (phone, clock, calculator) stay available, shown right on the block screen for quick access.

CALMING BLOCK SCREENS
Five animated themes (Starry Night, Dreamy Clouds, Aquarium, Northern Lights, Fireflies) keep the block screen friendly, not frustrating.

FLEXIBLE PARENT OVERRIDES
Grant extra time for special occasions, temporarily unlock, or lock early — and open Settings straight from the lock screen with one PIN entry.

WIND-DOWN REMINDERS
Optional notifications before quiet time starts, giving kids time to finish up.

EMERGENCY ACCESS
An emergency call button is always available on the block screen, plus an optional emergency contact number.

ACTIVITY LOG
See when the device was locked, unlocked, when overrides were used, and when an allowed app was opened.

AVAILABLE IN 16 LANGUAGES
English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Ukrainian, Turkish, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Thai and Filipino — QuietTime starts in your device's language automatically.

100% PRIVATE — NOTHING LEAVES THE DEVICE
Everything stays on the phone. No accounts, no cloud, no tracking, no ads, no data collection of any kind. QuietTime can't see your child's activity, and neither can we. Fully compliant with COPPA and UK/EU GDPR child-protection rules.

FREE — FOREVER
QuietTime is completely free, with no subscription and no ads. If it helps your family, you can leave an optional tip to support development — never required.

Great for: screen time limits, bedtime mode, school-night routines, homework focus, digital wellbeing and healthy family screen habits.
