How It Works

Parental oversight designed for trust and privacy in three simple steps.

1

Connect Screen Time

Set up app limits, downtime, and web filtering directly through Apple's native Screen Time framework.

2

On-Device Privacy

Usage reports are generated privately on-device. Personal messages, calls, and photos never leave your child's hardware.

3

Ask MOTHER Anytime

Chat with MOTHER for calm parenting advice, teen slang translations, and app safety gut checks.

Apple Screen Time Pairing

How Parent & Child Devices Connect

HoverMother relies exclusively on Apple's native FamilyControls framework. Pairing requires authenticated parental consent through Apple Family Sharing — no configuration profiles, no MDM, and no secret surveillance.

01 / Apple Group

Family Sharing

Parent and child Apple IDs belong to your verified Apple Family Sharing group on iOS.

02 / Parent Auth

Native Prompt

On the child device, Apple displays its native Screen Time authorization prompt.

03 / Passcode Sign-Off

Parent Approval

The parent enters their Apple ID or Screen Time passcode directly to approve limits.

04 / Local Control

On-Device Limits

Limits and web filters run 100% locally via ManagedSettings. Zero personal data leaves the device.

Built for Family Harmony

Morning Briefs

High-level morning summary of daily screen time, scheduled downtime, and pending requests.

Parenting Guidance

Ask MOTHER for calm, practical scripts to talk about apps, limits, and online boundaries.

Screen Time & Downtime

Enforce healthy device limits and bedtime downtime schedules via Apple Screen Time.

Web Content Filter

Limit adult websites using Apple's built-in Screen Time content filtering.

Ask to Buy Reminders

Keep App Store and in-game micro-transactions parent-approved via Apple Family Sharing.

Opt-In Shared Location

Check in on your child's location when they choose to share it with the family.

Slang Translator

Type or paste unfamiliar phrases into MOTHER for instant, plain-English explanations.

Privacy by Design · Zero-Surveillance Architecture

Honest. Private. Child-Respecting.

We believe a child's trust is sacred. HoverMother never accesses, reads, or stores your child's text messages, DMs, photos, or browsing history.

App controls rely exclusively on Apple's native Screen Time framework, where usage data is generated privately on-device by iOS. All account metadata is encrypted in transit and at rest on Google Cloud infrastructure.

Zero Message & DM Access

Texts, iMessages, social media DMs, photos, and call logs are never scanned, read, or uploaded.

Opaque Apple Tokens

Uses Apple's hardware-backed ApplicationToken hashes so raw app identities stay private.

Isolated On-Device Sandbox

Screen Time charts render inside Apple's network-blocked extension—raw usage never leaves the device.

TLS 1.3 & AES-256 Cloud

Encrypted parent account sync on Google Cloud with zero ad-network SDKs and zero data selling.
