Screen time managed
with agency,
not authority.

Playback is a family screen time app built around behavioral science — where kids set limits they want to keep, and earn rewards they actually care about.

How it works

Three steps to fewer fights
and more agency.

01
Make the Game Plan together

Parent and kid sit down, set daily limits, and choose a real reward. Both tap to confirm. A real agreement — not fine print.

02
Kids lock time before the urge hits

Pre-committing is the core mechanic. Kids lock away future screen time before the craving kicks in — and earn bigger progress toward their reward.

03
Unlock the vault, earn the reward

Progress fills a Time Vault. When it's full, it unlocks. The kid earned it — not as a punishment avoided, but as a goal reached.

For everyone in the family

Works for parents.
Wanted by kids.

Willpower alone
doesn't work against a
billion-dollar attention economy.

Playback isn't about more restrictions. It's about giving kids the structural support to actually make choices — and feel good about making them. Not zero screens. Intentional ones.
