The app provides reports that show both total screen time and gaming time, making it easy to monitor usage and adjust settings as needed.
This feature is upcoming. When launched, Game Limiter will be able to block or restrict access to specific games or apps.
To avoid unnecessary frustration, the system is designed not to interrupt gameplay during critical situations. For example, if a child is in the middle of a boss fight, the game will not be stopped until the fight is completed. The same applies to ongoing multiplayer matches, which are allowed to finish before restrictions take effect.
Instead, time limits are adjusted afterward, maintaining balance without creating conflict or abrupt interruptions during play.
By setting clear time limits and encouraging other activities, Game Limiter helps children build routines and understand the value of balance. We also share articles and insights about healthy digital habits and balanced screen time on our blog.
