Four steps to
a calmer household

Set it up once, and Open Sezami handles the rest. No arguments, no negotiations—just a clear system everyone understands.

📱

Install & Pair

Download on the parent and child devices. Pair with a simple code—no account needed.

📋

Set Tasks

Parents add daily tasks: reading, chores, practice. Set due times or leave them open.

Kids Complete

Children see their task list, check things off, and watch their progress bar fill up.

🎉

Apps Unlock

Once tasks are done, selected apps unlock automatically. No parent intervention needed.

Everything you need,
nothing you don't

We intentionally kept Open Sezami simple. No overwhelming dashboards, no complicated rules—just what works.

🔐

App Shielding

Selected apps are hidden behind a shield until tasks are complete. Uses Apple's native Screen Time framework.

🔄

Recurring Tasks

Set tasks to repeat daily or on specific days. "Read for 20 minutes" can auto-appear every morning.

Due Times

Optional deadlines add gentle urgency. Overdue tasks block apps; future tasks don't.

👪

Multi-Child

Each child gets their own task list and progress. Parents manage everyone from one device.

🔓

Override Controls

Parents can lock or unlock any child's phone instantly for situations that don't fit the rules.

☁️

CloudKit Sync

Everything syncs across devices via iCloud. No accounts to create, no passwords to remember.

Two ways to use
Open Sezami

Whether you want to encourage good habits or simply manage daily screen time, Sezami adapts to your family's style.

📚

Task-Based Unlocking

Kids earn their screen time by completing tasks you set. Great for building daily habits around reading, chores, or practice.

  • "Read for 20 minutes" before YouTube
  • "Practice piano" before gaming
  • "Clean your room" before social media
  • Recurring tasks reset daily or weekly
New

Screen Time Budgets

Set a daily time allowance. Kids decide when to use it, learning to budget their own screen time responsibly.

  • Set daily limits (e.g., 2 hours)
  • Kids start and stop their own sessions
  • Apps lock when the budget runs out
  • Bonus time for extra tasks (optional)
