Request More Time

When an app is blocked by time limits, children can send a request to parents from Fami Hero Kids.

Send a Request (Child Device)

  1. Open the blocked app and tap Ask for more time.
  2. Tap Request More Time.
  3. Enter a custom message or choose a suggested message.
  4. Tap Send request now.

Current behavior in the Android child app:

  • Request duration is sent as 30 minutes per request.
  • You cannot submit an empty request message.

Parent Approval Flow

Parents receive a notification and can:

  • Approve
  • Deny
  • Approve with a different duration

Changes usually sync within seconds when both devices are online.

Common Responses

  • Success: request sent and parent is notified.
  • Already pending: there is already an open request for that app.
  • Failed: temporary sync/network issue.

If Request Is Not Delivered

  • Confirm both devices have internet access.
  • Check push notifications are enabled for the Parent App.
  • Reopen both apps to refresh sync state.
