Parental Control & Screen Time
About Growkin
Growkin is an all-in-one parental control and family app. From your own phone you can limit screen time, block distracting apps, see where your child is on the map, and turn everyday chores into a rewarding game — all in one place.
What Growkin helps you do
- App limits & blocking: set daily time limits for any app, or block distracting apps instantly with Block all — and lift them just as fast with Unblock all.
- Auto-block schedules: create School and Bedtime schedules that block the right apps automatically on the days and hours you choose, for safer focus and sleep.
- Location & safe zones: see where your child is in real time and get alerts when they arrive at or leave Home, School, Grandmother's and other safe zones.
- Tasks & rewards: build age-appropriate task lists, let kids earn stars for completing them, and set goals and challenges that reward real effort.
- Progress & habits: track completed tasks, earnings and parenting goals over time, with tips from Polly, your in-app child coach.
Growkin pairs with the free Growkin Kids companion app through a simple QR code, so your child sees their tasks and rewards while you stay in control from your phone.
