Start your first session

How a TeeBee screen-time session works, start to finish.

1. The kids pick a show or movie on TeeBee's home screen.
2. TeeBee asks How long? A grown-up picks: this episode (or the whole movie), 15, 30 or 45 minutes, or no timer.
3. The show opens with a gentle timer on screen.
4. When time is up, TeeBee says a calm goodbye and the TV locks until a grown-up starts a new session.

You're in charge from your phone the whole time: add or remove 5 minutes, pause, or end now.

With When time is up: Finish episode, the episode plays to the end. A movie only finishes if it's nearly over; otherwise it ends on time.

Steps in other companies' apps change now and then. Last checked October 2026. Something different on your TV? Let us know.
