For parents

Games wait.
Practice doesn't.

CubTutor guards the apps you pick on your kid's iPhone. To open them, your kid answers a few questions at their level — then play unlocks for exactly the time you set.

How it works

You set the rules once. The phone enforces them every day — without you having to be the bad guy.

1🛡️

Pick the apps, set the time

Choose which apps wait behind questions, how many questions to ask, and how many minutes of play a correct round earns.

2✏️

They answer to unlock

When your kid opens a guarded app, a question at their grade level appears instead. Answer right — the apps open for the window you chose.

3📈

You see everything

Daily practice, accuracy by topic, and streaks — on your own phone. If your kid works with a tutor on CubTutor, the tutor's notes reach you too.

What's free, what's not

No trial countdowns. Basic math stays free for as long as you use it.

Free forever

Grade-level math

  • Math questions matched to your kid's grade
  • The full unlock loop — apps, questions, timing
  • Progress tracking on your phone
Yearly family plan

Everything else

  • Advanced math tracks beyond grade level
  • English, Science and Social Studies
  • Plans sized for 1, 2, or 3+ kids — one subscription covers the family

Subscriptions are made from your phone, never your kid's — locked subjects on their phone simply say a grown-up can unlock them.

Already have a tutor?

If your tutor uses CubTutor, their curriculum drives the questions on your kid's phone — so the practice between lessons is exactly what the tutor planned. You'll get their session notes and a weekly progress email, automatically.

Questions parents ask

Is it safe? What about calls?

Yes. Apple's own Screen Time framework never allows the Phone app to be blocked — calls always work. CubTutor only guards the apps you personally choose.

Can my kid just skip the question?

No. There is no "ignore" or "ask later" button. The guarded apps stay closed until a question is answered correctly. Everything else on the phone works normally.

Can my kid buy things through the app?

No. There are no purchases on the kid's phone at all. Anything locked shows a note that a grown-up can unlock it — from the grown-up's own phone.

What grades does it cover?

Kindergarten through 12th grade. Questions are matched to the grade you set, and you can change it any time.

Tonight's screen time can earn itself.

Set it up in a few minutes — pick the apps, set the minutes, hand the phone back.
