Other Apps Treat Your Child Like a Problem to Control

We treat them like a person to nurture. Because that's what Catholic parenting is—forming virtue, not just preventing vice.

Built on Covenant, Not Control

Features designed to form virtue and strengthen family bonds

Digital Covenant Builder

Parent and child co-create device rules using Catholic virtue language—temperance, prudence, fortitude. Both sign digitally, transforming “parent's arbitrary rules” into “our family promise.”

✦Teaches moral reasoning, not blind obedience

Virtue Points & Grace Bank

Kids earn points for self-regulation and positive behavior. Redeem for privileges or donate to charity. Parents grant “Grace Moments” to model mercy over pure justice.

✦Rewards virtue formation, not just compliance

Parent Accountability Mode

Parents sync to the same ruleset with gentle reminders. When you hit your limit, you get: “Time to model the virtue.” Kids see you're trying too—ending the “hypocrite” argument forever.

✦First tool that helps parents lead by example

Digital Examen

Daily Ignatian reflection prompts help kids examine their digital choices. Optional sharing with parents sparks conversation, not interrogation.

✦Forms conscience, not just controls behavior

❌ Parent vs Child

Safe, But Not Surveillance

Essential protection without the Big Brother feel

Virtue-Category Filtering

Block explicit content by category (violence, adult content). When blocked, kids see why it was blocked (the violated virtue like "Respect")—never the specific URL, removing temptation while teaching principles.

Trust-Based Location

Check-ins only, no constant tracking. Rewards for consistency build responsibility.

Crisis Alerts Only

AI flags severe dangers but respects privacy—no reading private messages unless child consents.

Screen Time Guardrails

Enforces covenant limits flexibly. Kids can bank unused time for later use.
