User Reviews and Ratings
★★★☆☆Good but needs improvement
The features included with this app are good but they really need to add a downtime feature like Apple has for their devices. I can set a daily limit for playtime but I can’t schedule my kid’s Switch to shutdown at bedtime every day. If they could add that feature this app would be perfect.
★★★★★Reseña
Me agrada mucho y me divierte está fenomenal este aparato
★★★☆☆Solid but very limited
Not being able to set ‘no play times’ is really a big miss. If I setup an hour of play on Saturday, my little guy will wake himself up at 5am to play. So that means the time limits have to be set each day in the morning and cleared in the evening. Very inefficient
★★★★☆Works pretty well
Would be better if you could set custom times to automatically block the console completely. Otherwise it is pretty easy to use.
★★★★☆Needs more options
This is good if you only want a report of time spent on the Switch (and where) and the ability to somewhat control “maturity” settings. There is no feature (that I’ve found) to actually set a timer with a lock on the Switch or to have a password required to unlock it.
