TVGuard is a parental control app for your family's Android TV and Google TV. Manage your kids' screen time, block or lock apps, and set bedtime limits — all from your phone, with no account and no cloud.

Pair it once with the free TVGuard app on your TV, and your phone becomes the remote control for your family's screen time: lock apps behind a PIN, schedule bedtimes, cap daily viewing, and see exactly where the time went.

NO ACCOUNT. NO CLOUD.
TVGuard works entirely on your home Wi-Fi. Your phone talks to your TV directly. There is no sign-up, no server, and nothing about your family's viewing ever leaves your home network.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Lock apps behind a parent PIN — the TV asks for the PIN before an app opens
• Block apps completely
• Bedtime schedules — the whole TV locks during the hours you choose
• Per-app daily screen time limits — an app locks once its limit is reached
• Live controls — lock the TV instantly, unlock it, or grant extra minutes
• Re-lock a single app without touching the rest
• Screen-time reports — see usage per app
• Guard Settings and the Play Store so your rules can't be changed or worked around

PERFECT FOR
• Parents who want to limit kids' screen time on the TV
• Families sharing one Android TV or Google TV
• Keeping YouTube, games and streaming apps behind a PIN
• Enforcing homework time and bedtime without arguments

BUILT FOR A REMOTE
Typing a PIN with a TV remote is usually painful. TVGuard uses a Google-TV-style dial: the three numbers on screen map to LEFT, OK and RIGHT, and up/down move between rows — so your PIN is quick to enter and hard for a child to read over your shoulder.

FREE
• 1 paired TV
• Lock up to 5 apps
• 1 bedtime schedule
• Today's screen time
• Supported by a small banner ad

PRO
• Unlimited TVs, locked apps and schedules
• Per-day-of-week schedules — different times for weekdays, Saturday and Sunday
• Per-app daily screen time limits
• Fully block apps
• Week and month usage history
• Live controls (lock now, grant extra time)
• Guard Settings & Play Store
• No ads

Take back control of the family TV. Download TVGuard, pair it with your Android TV, and set your kids' screen time in minutes.
The TV's PIN pad can now shuffle its numbers, so a watching child never learns the pattern.

• Setup walks you through each TV permission, one screen at a time
• Name your schedules, rename your TVs, collapse long lists
• Pick a monthly or yearly Pro plan on a clearer upgrade screen
• Rotate your TV's pairing code whenever you want
• New: anonymous usage stats, with an off-switch in Settings → Privacy
