SkjermVakt — Product Brief for Developer Version 1.1 · March 2026 About the Project I am developing a new mobile application aimed at families with children, focused on improving how screen time is managed in everyday life. The goal is to create a product that provides structure and peace of mind for parents, while offering an engaging and intuitive experience for children — without feeling like a traditional control tool. A visual design direction has already been created (HTML prototype), and I am now looking for a skilled developer to help bring a first functional version (MVP) to life. Problem Statement Screen time is a recurring source of friction in modern families. Existing solutions tend to focus primarily on restriction and control, with limited emphasis on motivation or positive engagement for children. This project aims to address that gap with a more balanced and user-centered approach. Core Concept The solution consists of two connected applications: Parent Interface — provides control, overview, and management tools Child Interface — offers a more interactive and motivating experience These two parts communicate in real time and function as a unified system. Core Features (MVP Scope) Parent Application Set and manage daily screen time limits per child Allow or restrict access to specific apps Define simple usage schedules throughout the week Receive and respond to child requests (e.g., permissions) Access usage insights and activity summaries Child Application Interactive system that reinforces desired behaviors Progress visualization and simple goal tracking Parent-defined activities or tasks Engaging feedback elements tied to usage patterns (Detailed engagement mechanics will be shared in further discussions.) Technical Requirements Platforms iOS and Android (cross-platform preferred) Suggested Stack Frontend: React Native or Flutter Backend: Firebase, Supabase, or similar (real-time capabilities required) Authentication: Email + third-party sign-in (Google/Apple) Push notifications: Required for both parent and child interactions Key Technical Consideration The product involves functionality related to managing or restricting app usage on devices. This requires integration with platform-specific capabilities (iOS/Android). It is important to clarify: What is feasible within platform policies Any limitations and possible workarounds Design & User Experience The product aims to stand out clearly from traditional solutions in this category. Design direction includes: Modern and refined visual style Strong attention to detail and quality Dynamic and responsive interface elements A balance between usability and aesthetics A prototype will be shared upon request. Differentiation The product differentiates itself by combining: Structure and control User engagement A more holistic family-oriented experience What I’m Looking For Experience with mobile app development (React Native or Flutter) Experience with backend systems and real-time databases Understanding of platform constraints on iOS and Android Ability to contribute with technical insight and recommendations What I’d Like From You For an initial discussion, I would appreciate: Your assessment of technical feasibility Recommended tech stack and reasoning Rough estimate for MVP (timeline and cost) Any questions or suggestions Closing This is an ambitious project with strong potential in a growing market. I’m looking for a developer who wants to be involved early and contribute beyond just implementation. Feel free to reach out for further discussion.
