What it is

Turns a paediatrician’s screen-time advice into a simple weekly plan the family checks in on themselves. The doctor writes the advice in their own words and up to eight weekly goals agreed with the family, with an optional review date; no limit or hour count ships. A new plan replaces the one in force, which is kept. Each week the family answers on the Patient App — kept to it, partly, or not this week — with a note for themselves, and can change the week’s answer. The clinic sees only which weeks were checked in, never the answer or the note, and nothing pairs with or watches any device. On the clinic’s Sunday, a family with no check-in that week gets one nudge on the clinic’s WhatsApp line (with their consent, once the line is connected).

Rules it keeps

What it does not do, by design. A listing with only benefits is an advertisement.

It does not monitor or restrict any device — it is a conversation aid, not parental-control software — and the clinic never reads the family’s answers or notes, only that they checked in.

Questions clinics ask

What does ScreenBalanceCoach do?

The doctor’s screen-time advice as a weekly family plan the family checks in on, with nothing tracked. Turns a paediatrician’s screen-time advice into a simple weekly plan the family checks in on themselves. The doctor writes the advice in their own words and up to eight weekly goals agreed with the family, with an optional review date; no limit or hour count ships.

What data does ScreenBalanceCoach read and write?

ScreenBalanceCoach reads who the child’s parents are on the record and writes the doctor’s advice and weekly goals, the family’s weekly check-ins. Its data class is PHI-lite. Every app works on the same patient record — nothing is copied into a silo.

What does ScreenBalanceCoach deliberately not do?

It does not monitor or restrict any device — it is a conversation aid, not parental-control software — and the clinic never reads the family’s answers or notes, only that they checked in.

What happens to our data if we uninstall ScreenBalanceCoach?

The family stops seeing the plan and the Sunday nudge stops; every plan and check-in is kept.

Is ScreenBalanceCoach available today?

Yes — ScreenBalanceCoach is live in clinics today. Set up your practice on MedAppz and install it from your dashboard.
