05. Edit access times (in a mode)

Screen time schedules are managed through Modes:

Create a new mode for each child if their schedules differ.
Assign specific times for device use in that mode.
Share or restrict modes as needed, allowing for personalized setups per child. (You can block a mode for a child)

The access times are when kids can use their devices, under a mode.

We do this in "Modes" to give flexibility during school term or on holidays or schoolwork mode etc

On Mobile: From the main screen

Tap on "Settings" in the bottom menu

Tap on Manage Modes

Tap on "Edit" under ‘Fun’ mode (or the mode you want to edit)

Tap on "Access Times" on the top

Edit the access times of any day, but tapping on the "Pencil" icon
Edit either the times or days as displayed;
Or add a new access time
Click Save

Note This feature currently works better via manage.myscreencoach.com on a bigger screen, as you can see the hours of the day filled in.

On manage.myscreencoach.com

Select "Modes" from the LHS menu.

You will be in the "Access Times" tab
