About This Feature

Control What Apps Run. Control When They Run. Without Being There.

Rules about screen time only work if they can be enforced. Remote app pausing gives you the enforcement mechanism that works regardless of whether you are in the room, in the building or in a different city.

For Parents

A parent in Portland, OR knows their 13-year-old has a homework rule: no games or TikTok from 4 PM to 7 PM on school nights. With a standard phone, enforcement requires being home and checking manually. With OgyMogy, the parent pauses those apps from their work phone at 4:00 PM and restarts them at 7:05 PM. The teenager can still use the calculator, the browser for research and their messaging apps. The specific apps that compete with homework are off. Remotely. Without an argument.

Remote app pausePause any installed app on the monitored Android from your dashboard. The app becomes inaccessible to the device user until you choose to restore it, without the app being uninstalled or the device being locked.
Remote app restartRestore a paused app remotely when the restriction period is over or when you decide to restore access. The app resumes normally from the moment you restart it in the dashboard.
Works on any appRemote pause works across all app categories: games, social media platforms, streaming services, messaging apps and any other application installed on the monitored Android.
Scheduled pausesSet recurring time windows during which specific apps are automatically paused, such as every weekday from 3:30 PM to 7:00 PM, without needing to manually trigger the pause each time.
