What is Screen Broadcast?

When OurPact's View feature is enabled to manage child iOS devices, Apple's safety measures require that the device being recorded (or sharing screenshots) grant permission for this action. Your child will grant this permission from within their OurPact Jr. app with the Screen Broadcast prompt.  

OurPact will block your child's apps while the Screen Broadcast is not active.  Once your child taps 'Start' in OurPact Jr. on their iOS device, the Screen Broadcasting session will start. Your parent app will start populating with screenshots, and their apps will become available to them until the device becomes blocked or the broadcast is stopped.

If you are using View and Screen Time Allowance, the Start prompt for Screen Broadcasting will also start your child's Allowance timer.
