How ScreenTreat Works: A Simple Guide for Parents
Feb 2, 2025

Hi, I’m Ruta from ScreenTreat!
If you’ve ever wished for a way to motivate your kids to develop good habits while managing screen time effortlessly, ScreenTreat is the answer. In this article, I’ll explain exactly how ScreenTreat works, focusing on the two types of tasks that parents can set: Must-Do Tasks and Bonus Tasks.
Must-Do Tasks: Building Everyday Habits
Must-do tasks are designed to help kids develop habits that should become part of their daily routine—without “earning” any extra screen time. These tasks don’t give additional minutes because they are essential for building natural, positive behavior.
Your child can only unlock their daily screen time limit after all must-do tasks are completed.
Examples of Must-Do Tasks:
Do homework
Brush teeth
Make bed
Eat a healthy snack
By completing these tasks before using devices, kids learn responsibility and time management while building healthy routines.
Bonus Tasks: Extra Rewards for Going the Extra Mile
Bonus tasks are all about rewarding kids for doing more than the basics. These tasks encourage good behavior and personal growth, and each bonus task comes with extra screen time as a reward.
Examples of Bonus Tasks:
Do sports
Read a book
Take out the trash
Learn to play music
Receive a good mark at school
Each bonus task is customizable—you can change the name, emoji, or even set specific days when it should appear for your child.
Parental Controls That Put You in Charge
ScreenTreat gives parents complete control over screen time:
Unlimited Mode – Turn on unlimited screen time when you want.
Instant Block – Block access instantly if your child tries to cheat.
App Access Rules – Kids can only use selected apps if these conditions are met:
All must-do tasks are completed.
They still have time balance left.
It’s not sleep time.
Block mode is not activated by parents.
