Setup
TimeCredit setup follows a clear sequence: enable the required permissions, select the apps you want to manage, classify them, then define your time rules.
Each selected item belongs to one of four categories:
Daily use
Understand where time goes. View usage by day, week, or month, and observe how your Work/Fun balance changes over time.
Turn your rules into action. Enable or disable control, check whether apps are currently allowed or blocked, and let TimeCredit apply your credit, daily caps, and time windows automatically.
Manage the app from one place. Check Screen Time status, adjust appearance and language, manage PIN settings, lock the app, and access demo options.

Terms
TimeCredit's use is governed by Apple's standard End User License Agreement (EULA). These Terms of Use supplement that agreement and clarify certain aspects (user responsibility, limitations, acceptable use). Subscriptions are managed by the App Store: automatic renewal and cancellation are handled in your Apple account settings.
TimeCredit is designed to help users understand and manage screen time through app usage statistics, app classification, Fun Time Credit, time limits, schedules, and optional control rules. TimeCredit is not a substitute for parental supervision, personal judgment, education, communication, or responsible device management.
You are solely responsible for choosing your settings, selecting apps or categories, configuring schedules, defining limits, managing the PIN, reviewing permissions, and checking that TimeCredit behaves as expected on your device. You are also responsible for keeping your device, operating system, Apple account, Screen Time settings, and TimeCredit version up to date.
When TimeCredit is used for parental control, parents or guardians remain solely responsible for deciding whether the app is appropriate for the child, explaining the rules, supervising device use, reviewing settings regularly, and adapting rules to the child, age, maturity, family context, and applicable laws.
TimeCredit is not responsible for consequences resulting from incorrect setup, incomplete setup, disabled permissions, unsuitable rules, weak PIN choices, shared PINs, device sharing, changes made by the user, changes made by a child or third party, attempts to bypass restrictions, use of alternative apps or devices, workarounds, system resets, operating system changes, or any other misuse, unintended use, or circumvention of the app.
TimeCredit relies on Apple Screen Time-related APIs, iOS behavior, device settings, app categories, permissions granted by the user, and third-party apps or web domains. These elements are outside TimeCredit's control and may change, fail, become unavailable, behave differently than expected, or impose restrictions that affect TimeCredit features.
TimeCredit is provided as a screen-time assistance and configuration tool. It does not guarantee perfect blocking, perfect monitoring, uninterrupted operation, accurate categorization by third-party systems, specific behavioral outcomes, improved habits, reduced screen time, family conflict resolution, child safety, or prevention of access to unwanted content in every situation.
TimeCredit must not be used as an emergency, safety-critical, medical, psychological, legal, security, or child-protection service. You should not rely on TimeCredit as the only measure to protect a child, enforce rules, prevent harm, or supervise device use.
TimeCredit features may evolve, be modified, interrupted, limited, removed, or made temporarily unavailable. Updates to iOS, Apple policies, device settings, or third-party apps may affect how TimeCredit works. You are responsible for reviewing TimeCredit after updates and adjusting settings if needed.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, TimeCredit, its developer, owner, contributors, and related parties shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive, or exemplary damages, losses, claims, costs, expenses, data loss, device issues, missed restrictions, excessive screen time, family disputes, user behavior, child behavior, unauthorized changes, bypasses, misconfiguration, misuse, interruption, unavailability, or any other consequence arising from or related to the use of, inability to use, configuration of, reliance on, or performance of TimeCredit.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, TimeCredit is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, reliability, availability, compatibility, security, or non-infringement.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, if any liability cannot be excluded, the total aggregate liability of TimeCredit and its developer shall be limited to the amount you paid for TimeCredit, if any, during the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability where such exclusion or limitation is prohibited by applicable law. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions or liability limitations, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you.
You agree not to misuse TimeCredit, attempt to bypass security mechanisms, interfere with its operation, reverse engineer it where prohibited, use it to violate applicable law, or use it in a way that infringes the rights, privacy, or safety of others.
Your use of TimeCredit is also governed by the Privacy Policy on this page. TimeCredit is designed to work locally and does not require an account.
These terms may be updated if TimeCredit features, platform requirements, or legal requirements evolve. Any substantial update will be reflected on this page.
