For parents who've tried everything
Bedtime without the phone fight.
Roost locks the apps keeping your kids up — on your schedule, behind a PIN they can't undo.
Built for kids, for parents, for everyone.

Setup
Set it once. It runs every night.
Pick the apps, set the window, and Roost handles the rest when bedtime starts.
Roosting
Selected apps stay locked away.
When the schedule kicks in, chosen apps stay blocked until morning. Parent PIN protection keeps kids from overriding it.
Parent PIN
Important changes stay protected.
Settings and stop controls sit behind a PIN, with recovery if you forget it.
How it works
A small setup, then quieter nights.
Set the schedule
Make school nights and weekends match the way your family actually works.
Make it stick
A parent PIN and iOS Screen Time keep the schedule from getting switched off in a weak moment.
For parents
Controls that do not turn bedtime into a fight.
Roost is designed around clear routines instead of constant policing. Kids see when apps are locked, parents keep schedule changes gated, and reset codes help if a PIN gets forgotten.
Parent PINProtects settings and early wake-ups.
Recovery emailAllows a secure PIN reset code.

Made for iPhone & iPad
Sleep first. Scroll later.
Roost uses Apple Screen Time controls to help families put apps away overnight and bring them back when the day starts. Great for kids — and for grown-ups who scroll past their bedtime, too.
