Shield the app itself
Screen Time blocks the native apps too, not just what happens inside Reelmute.
Hold the key, or hand it over
Lock them yourself, or appoint a designated adult — a partner, a friend — and ask them for time. They decide how many minutes, and they can say no.
With an adult, you cannot let yourself back in
They hold the private key. Your phone only has the public half.
Being the adult is free
Always. And requests cross our relay sealed shut — we hold no key to them.
Reelmute Family. Their phone, your rules.
Your kid keeps Instagram, YouTube and TikTok, their DMs, search and friends. The endless feed goes, and the rest is set from your phone.
Their feeds, your call
Reels, Shorts and For You come off their phone. You pick what else goes on each network: Stories, suggested posts, ads.
Minutes and bedtime
A daily limit and a bedtime, set from your own phone. Their minutes per network show up on yours every day.
They ask, you decide
Want time in a locked app? They ask, you choose how many minutes, and you can say no. Lifting the lock needs your minutes, not theirs.
Paired in a minute
A six-letter code, no shared account, no Family Sharing. iPhone or Android on either side.

Questions people ask.
