Kaizen Focus

"Just five more minutes!" Sound familiar? Every parent faces the screen time battle. Kids promise they’re doing homework, but they’re actually gaming. They say YouTube is educational, but you find them deep in entertainment content. Traditional parental controls either block everything or nothing.

Kaizen Focus changes the game with intelligent restrictions. Set different limits for weekdays versus weekends—1 hour of gaming Monday-Friday, 3 hours on Saturday. Create app groups where YouTube, games, and social media share one combined limit, preventing kids from switching between apps to extend screen time.

The YouTube channel blocking feature is brilliant. Block entire channels, not individual videos. Add problematic creators once, and all their content becomes inaccessible. Conversely, whitelist educational channels so learning time doesn’t count against entertainment limits.

Here’s the genius part: when kids hit their limit, the screen locks. Only you can unlock it with your admin password. But there’s an SOS button for genuine emergencies—it grants 60 seconds of access, then locks again. The system takes random screenshots throughout the day, giving kids the option to delete anything private. You’ll receive daily reports showing exactly what they accessed, when, and for how long.

No browser extensions needed. No workarounds possible. Just clear boundaries that enforce themselves while you focus on being a parent, not a digital police officer.
