The questions behind the question

Who is behind it

Jubilee Industries LLC, Montgomery, Texas: a family company whose own children's phones run SimpleSentinel. SimpleSentinel is a trademark of Jubilee Industries LLC, patent pending. The app is sold only through Apple's App Store, and support comes from the people who built it.

What it can see

The rules you set and whether they are on, which chores were checked off, when a pause or downtime window started, and a daily log of every setting anyone changed and who changed it. That is what a parent needs to run the rules, and that is all.

What it cannot see

Nothing your child types, watches or browses. No messages, no search history, no screenshots. SimpleSentinel locks and unlocks; it does not watch. Phone calls to and from you keep working under every lock, because Apple keeps the Phone app reachable.

How you pay and how you leave

Apple bills the subscription to your Apple ID, with a 7-day trial first, and you cancel it in your Apple subscriptions like any other app. One price covers every child and every device. The Founding Family price never goes up as long as you stay subscribed.
