One tap, one service.
Pause just Roblox and leave the rest of their world alone. Homework sites still load, messages still send, and when they have done what you asked, one tap switches it back.
HushHold is parental control that runs on the network, not on their device.
Switch Roblox, YouTube or TikTok off on your child’s device in seconds, from your own phone or computer, without touching theirs. Launching late 2026 in the UK and US.
For iPhone and iPad. Android is coming later.
Why it holds
Pause just Roblox and leave the rest of their world alone. Homework sites still load, messages still send, and when they have done what you asked, one tap switches it back.
No passcode to guess, no clock trick, no delete-and-reinstall, and the VPNs kids usually reach for to slip past filters will not even connect. If you have watched a rule get worked around by Wednesday, this is built for you.
HushHold does its work on the network, not the phone, so after one short setup there is no app on their device to find, fight with, or drain the battery. And it is not a surveillance tool: it never reads their messages and keeps no history of the pages they visit.
More than a switch
Set the times that matter once and they run on their own. Roblox off through the school day and homework, off again at bedtime, back on when you said it would be. You do not have to watch the clock or reach for your phone. The routine keeps itself.
Invite the other parent, or another adult you trust, into your family and you both hold the keys. Either of you can pause or release a service from your own phone, and you both see the same rules. There is no single keeper of the passwords, and no waiting for one person to be home.
An optional reward chart lets a child earn extra minutes on the services you pick, banked to spend later. You choose whether to use it, and it stays off until you turn it on. It is there for the families who want it and out of the way for those who do not.
How it works
A few minutes in any browser, on your phone or computer. Invite the other parent so you both hold the keys.
About two minutes per device, and we hand-hold every step.
Hold and release services in seconds from wherever you are, or set a schedule that runs on its own. Their device stays in their hands.
Questions
A parental-control service that works at the network level rather than on the device. You choose which services (Roblox, YouTube, TikTok and more) your child’s device can reach, and you change that in seconds from any browser on your phone or computer.
No. You use it from any browser on your phone or computer, like your online banking. There is nothing to download for you, and no app running on your child’s device.
You can do both. Switch a service off or back on in the moment, or set a schedule that runs on its own. Many parents keep Roblox off through the school day and homework and off at bedtime, then let it come back at a set time. You set the routine once and it holds without you having to be there.
Yes. Invite the other parent into your family and you both hold the keys. Either of you can pause or release a service from your own phone, and you both see the same rules. There is no single keeper of the passwords, and no waiting for one person to be home to change something.
Screen Time is free and worth setting up. But rules are easy to set and hard to keep. In one US study, 86% of parents set screen rules and only 55% managed to enforce them. Passcodes get guessed, clocks get changed, things get deleted and reinstalled. HushHold lives off the device, so there is no passcode to crack and nothing on their phone to delete.
A VPN is the classic way past a filter, so HushHold blocks the VPN and proxy services kids typically reach for. They tap connect and nothing happens. No filter can honestly promise to catch every trick, but this closes the most common one, and it is the door most screen-time tools leave open.
There is a one-time setup on each child’s device, about two minutes, and we walk you through it. After that, everything is remote and nothing runs on their device.
No. Emergency, health and other critical services always stay reachable, even when you pause everything else. HushHold is built so a child is never cut off from safety.
iPhone and iPad at launch, with Android coming later. HushHold works on a child’s phone or tablet, not on games consoles such as a Nintendo Switch, PlayStation or Xbox, and not on smart TVs. Tell us what your family uses when you join. It genuinely shapes what we build first.
If you want them to, yes. An optional reward chart lets a child earn time on the services you choose, banked as minutes to spend later. It is entirely optional and set per child, off until you switch it on, so families who do not want it never see it.
Pricing is settled at launch. Waitlist members get founding-family pricing, our thank-you for being early.
Yes, and by design rather than by promise. We build to United Kingdom GDPR as our baseline, and every family gets those same protections wherever they live. HushHold is not a surveillance tool. We control which services a device can reach. We never read messages, see photos, or keep a history of the pages your child visits, and the system is not built to store any of that.
We are building toward late 2026, waitlist first. Joining now puts you at the front of the line.
