About this movement

The AAP Family Media Plan is the gold standard in pediatric screen time guidance, developed by the American Academy of Pediatrics based on decades of child development research. It recommends zero screen time under 18 months, co-viewing for ages 2–5, and consistent limits with media-free zones for older children. With Phosra, families can turn these clinical recommendations into real device-level rules — enforcing age-tiered time limits, content restrictions, and device-free periods.
