Same time every night
Set a wind-down schedule once. Entertainment apps pause automatically at bedtime — no nightly negotiation.
Bedtime Mode
Wind-down that actually winds down.
At bedtime, entertainment apps on the supervised Android device pause automatically — media included — while essential tools stay reachable.
Media actually stops
Videos or music already playing are paused when the block starts, so 'one more episode' ends on time.
Clock changes don't work
Changing the device time to dodge bedtime triggers a tamper alert to the supervisor.
Bedtime Mode, answered
What does Bedtime Mode block?
The apps you choose — typically games, short video, social, and streaming apps. Tools that should stay reachable, like calling, can remain on the allowed list.
What happens to a video that's already playing?
It pauses. StudyLumen uses notification access only to pause media when a block starts — it does not read notification content.
Can bedtime be skipped by changing the clock?
Changing the device time is one of the tamper signals StudyLumen watches for. The supervisor is alerted, along with enforcement being disabled or permissions being revoked.
What about weekend nights?
Schedules are yours to shape — many supervisors pair a school-night bedtime with the more relaxed Weekend Balance routine.
