  1. There are 4 major missing features:

     

    1. Common Device Limits
      This has been brought up before but is really important, the ability to limit usage for a child profile for ALL devices together, so they can choose which device to use their time for. (Child A has 2 hours and can choose to spend 1.5 hours on his PC and .5 on the tablet)
       
    2. Scheduling AND Time Limits Together
      Currently you have to choose either a time limit or a schedule. But life doesnt work out that easily where you have a set time to use something, homework and chores might take longer that expected, etc. but if you account for that then they could end up with a lot of extra screen time. You should be able to set:

      Child A = 2 total hours of screen time between the hours of 10AM and 8PM
       
    3. Choose Allowed Scheduling
      Currently when you set scheduling up, you can only choose when to block the child. This is confusing and counterproductive, as we cannot just say they are allowed from 6pm to 8pm, but we have to set 2 schedules that they are not allowed from 12am to 6pm and also not allowed from 8pm to 12am. If you have different schedules for different days, this gets confusing really fast. It should be by allowed times. (This is MUCH less of a problem if #2 is implemented, AND the next one #4)
       
    4. Copy Schedules
      Because of the difficulty of setting up schedules, and how it can get really complicated even if you implement the 3 things above, you should be able to copy schedules (at the very least) from one childs device to another childs device. 

    These are massive missing functionalities that make this app go from having a ton of potential, to being borderline unusable. (We have 4 kids)


     

  2. As a  developer it is clear when we are trying to confuse the situation because they do not want to implement it. 

    This is simple, it is just a “global” time limit instead of a time limit based on each device. 

    There are several basic functionalities missing like this. 

    The other one is that you should be able to set a schedule AND a time limit. I might want to open the screen time up to 2 hours per day, but they can only use those 2 hours between the times of 10AM and 8PM for example. Instead of only being able to choose a time limit, or a schedule.
