Partial The parent-facing dashboard and rules UI are vibe-codeable, but screen-time enforcement and family location sharing depend on restricted Apple frameworks (FamilyControls, DeviceActivity) that need entitlement approval and native iOS knowledge.
What it would actually take: A real version would be a native Swift/SwiftUI app with a child-side extension using Apple's Screen Time APIs, plus a parent app using Family Sharing. The hard parts are obtaining Apple's FamilyControls entitlement and handling background enforcement and location reliably, which requires iOS platform expertise and Apple developer program approval.
