Build parental control, focus, and digital wellbeing features on iOS and iPadOS using FamilyControls, ManagedSettings, and DeviceActivity.
FamilyControls requires the Family Controls Entitlement (com.apple.developer.family-controls). Request authorization via AuthorizationCenter.shared before presenting pickers or configuring stores.
import FamilyControls
@MainActor
final class ScreenTimeAuthManager {
static let shared = ScreenTimeAuthManager()
func requestAuthorization(for memberType: FamilyControlsMember = .individual) async throws {
// Options: .individual (user's own device) or .child (parental device managing child)
try await AuthorizationCenter.shared.requestAuthorization(for: memberType)
}
var authorizationStatus: AuthorizationStatus {
AuthorizationCenter.shared.authorizationStatus
}
}Allow users to select apps, categories, or web domains using SwiftUI's familyActivityPicker. Store the opaque FamilyActivitySelection securely in UserDefaults via an App Group container.
import SwiftUI
import FamilyControls
struct AppRestrictionPickerView: View {
@State private var selection = FamilyActivitySelection()
@State private var isPickerPresented = false
var body: some View {
Button("Select Apps to Shield") {
isPickerPresented = true
}
.familyActivityPicker(
isPresented: $isPickerPresented,
selection: $selection
)
.onChange(of: selection) { _, newSelection in
saveSelection(newSelection)
}
}
private func saveSelection(_ selection: FamilyActivitySelection) {
guard let groupDefaults = UserDefaults(suiteName: "group.com.example.app.screentime") else { return }
if let encoded = try? PropertyListEncoder().encode(selection) {
groupDefaults.set(encoded, forKey: "ShieldedSelection")
}
}
}Use ManagedSettingsStore to apply app shields, block application installs, restrict web domains, or enforce safari filter policies.
import ManagedSettings
import FamilyControls
@MainActor
final class ShieldManager {
static let shared = ShieldManager()
private let store = ManagedSettingsStore(named: .init("FocusShield"))
func applyShield(to selection: FamilyActivitySelection) {
// Shield specific applications
store.shield.applications = selection.applicationTokens.isEmpty ? nil : selection.applicationTokens
// Shield categories with optional exclusions
store.shield.applicationCategories = selection.categoryTokens.isEmpty ? nil : .specific(selection.categoryTokens)
// Shield web domains
store.shield.webDomains = selection.webDomainTokens.isEmpty ? nil : selection.webDomainTokens
}
func clearShield() {
store.clearAllSettings()
}
}Schedule background monitoring thresholds with DeviceActivitySchedule and DeviceActivityCenter. Time limit events invoke the separate DeviceActivityMonitor extension target.
import DeviceActivity
final class DeviceScheduleManager {
static let shared = DeviceScheduleManager()
private let center = DeviceActivityCenter()
func startSchedule() throws {
let schedule = DeviceActivitySchedule(
intervalStart: DateComponents(hour: 9, minute: 0),
intervalEnd: DateComponents(hour: 17, minute: 0),
repeats: true,
warningTime: DateComponents(minute: 5)
)
let activityName = DeviceActivityName("WorkHoursSchedule")
try center.startMonitoring(activityName, during: schedule)
}
func stopSchedule() {
center.stopMonitoring([DeviceActivityName("WorkHoursSchedule")])
}
}AuthorizationCenter.requestAuthorization without approval and provisioning profile entitlement fails immediately.ApplicationToken and WebDomainToken are deliberately opaque tokens for user privacy; apps cannot read bundle identifiers or URLs from them.DeviceActivityMonitor runs in a separate extension process triggered by the system daemon; do not expect the main app to receive delegate calls directly.clearAllSettings() or explicitly resetting properties.UserDefaults(suiteName:) to share serialized FamilyActivitySelection.com.apple.developer.family-controls entitlement been declared and provisioned?AuthorizationCenter.shared.requestAuthorization() invoked before opening the picker or modifying settings?FamilyActivitySelection instances serialized with PropertyListEncoder / PropertyListDecoder into an App Group suite?ManagedSettingsStore rather than private APIs?clearAllSettings() provided to allow users to release shields?DeviceActivityMonitor extension handle intervalDidStart, intervalDidEnd, and eventDidReachThreshold?.tessl-plugin
