I m Chris, the developer behind ScreenWarden for Roku, and I m getting ready to launch here on October 26th.
Here s the short version: Roku s built-in parental controls cover PINs and content ratings, but there s no way to set one hour of YouTube a day or the TV turns off at 9 on school nights. ScreenWarden fills that gap. It runs on your Windows PC and manages every Roku TV and player in your home, with:
ScreenWarden for Roku puts you in charge of screen time on every Roku TV and Roku player in your home, right from your Windows PC.
Enhanced parental controls allow daily limits for apps, schedule nightly bedtimes, wake up to your favorite channel, launch apps remotely, and lock it all behind a password. ScreenWarden runs quietly in the system tray and looks after your Roku devices for you. There is no account to create and no cloud. Everything stays on your PC.
