One phone manages the family TV. A direct Wi-Fi connection, no account and no cloud: clear screen-time boundaries, plus quizzes that let kids learn something and earn their own extra minutes.
Other tools just say time is up. Pomelo turns just five more minutes into active learning: parents write the questions, kids answer on the TV with the remote, and passing the quiz adds watch time automatically. What they learn is the only way back in.
Build your own question banks or import JSON. Choose from general knowledge, language, logic and science, and add an explanation to every question.
Use the arrow keys and OK, with 30 seconds per question. A wrong answer shows the correct one and its explanation, so the learning still happens.
By default, three correct answers in a row earn 15 minutes, added straight to today's allowance. One tap on Keep watching and play resumes.
Rewards are capped at 45 minutes a day, quizzes are blocked during a parent lock or sleep schedule, and your base daily limit is never changed.

Wrong answers show the correct one and its explanation before moving on

Kids see the correct answer, their own choice and the explanation. It is not about guessing right; it is about actually learning.
Daily caps, no quizzes during a parent lock or sleep schedule, no reward for quitting halfway, and no change to the base limit.

Set a daily limit and the screen locks automatically, with a gentle reminder at 3 minutes left. It resets at 00:00, with no nagging needed.
Kids request extra time on the TV and a banner appears on your phone for a one-tap yes or no. A 6-digit parent code also works.
Set a sleep window (for example 22:00–07:00): the TV locks automatically and shows a countdown until morning.
A purely local network design, for instant responses and private family data.
