A mission board your child checks on their own
Your child's own iPhone or iPad shows a short mission board with what is waiting today. They tick a chore off, with a photo as proof if you ask for one on that chore. You stop repeating yourself.
Parental control for iPhone and iPad
Chores first. Then screen time.
Your child ticks a chore off on their mission board, with a photo as proof if you like. You approve with one tap. The minutes they earn open the apps you chose, then lock them again, so the app says stop instead of you.

How it works
One clear deal instead of 'five more minutes' every evening.
- You set a mission
- Your child ticks it off, with a photo if you ask
- You approve or send it back
- The chosen apps open
- Minutes used or bedtime: locked again
What's in the app
Approve with one tap, or send it back with a tip
Submitted chores wait for you under 'Waiting for you'. One tap approves, or you send it back with a tip. Nothing approves itself, and the screen time your child earned is theirs the moment you say yes.
Screen time that runs itself
Through Apple's Screen Time, earned minutes open the apps you choose, then lock them again. Each day starts with the daily minutes you set. During locked hours, such as school, bedtime and dinner, those apps stay locked. If your child wants more, they can ask.
Two kinds of reward
Approved missions earn screen time in the apps you choose. Or your child saves up for a real-life promise: a movie together, an ice cream, a day out. Your child can suggest a reward too; you decide.
Family time: everything locked for a while
Dinner, a walk, a board game: one tap locks every linked device for 30, 60 or 90 minutes, or until tomorrow morning. You choose games and entertainment, the apps you selected, or all supported apps.
Rather keep it simple?
Then everything works as a voucher. Earned minutes become credit you manage yourself, and the app does not lock anything.
Together as a family
Your child's device, yours and your co-parent's stay in sync. You link a co-parent with a code. When a mission is waiting, send a gentle nudge at a moment you choose.
Fair and safe
Separate screens for parent and child. No ads, no loot boxes and no punishment for a missed day: an undone chore simply expires. No bank linking. Proof photos are kept only while a chore is waiting for review.
What you need
KlusQuest locks and unlocks apps through Apple's Screen Time, on your child's own device. With a Child Account in your Family Sharing group, you give Screen Time permission on that device. It also works with an ordinary Apple Account, but then your child can delete the app.
Your child's own iPhone or iPad
Running iOS 17.4 or later. The lock works on the device being locked.
A Child Account in Family Sharing
That lets you manage your child's Screen Time from your own iPhone, and keeps the app on your child's device.
Your own phone, or the parent area on theirs
With a second device you approve from your own phone. One shared device works too, with the parent area behind a PIN.
What parents ask us
Does KlusQuest work on Android?
No. KlusQuest is for iPhone and iPad only, on iOS 17.4 or later, because the lock works through Apple's Screen Time.
What if my child skips a day?
Nothing happens. An undone chore expires; nothing is taken away and a missed day is never punished.
Who approves the chores?
You, or your co-parent. Nothing approves itself: the screen time is your child's only after you say yes.
Can my co-parent join?
Yes. You link a co-parent with a code; they get the same parent view, and every device stays in sync.
What does my child see?
Their own mission board with today's chores, their coins and rewards, and whether their apps are open or locked. The parent area sits behind a PIN.
