Manual Blocks & Grants

OurPact's manual Grant and Block features allow you send on-demand commands to your child's device, remotely.

• OurPact's Free tier of management offers 5 Manual Blocks and 5 Manual Grants per month.
• OurPact's Plus, Premium, and Premium+ tiers of management offer unlimited Manual Grants and Blocks.

How to Apply an OurPact Manual Block/Grant:

1. Login to the OurPact parent app
2. Navigate to your child’s profile and select the “Grant” or "Block" tab under your child’s profile image and map.
3. Choose your preferred Block or Grant time frame.
4. Tap 'Cancel Override' at any time to remove the manual Block or Grant. Otherwise, it will expire after the time period selected.

Important Points:

• Think twice before sending an 'Until I Say So' Block or Grant! We recommend using 'Until Midnight' instead or other timed Grants and Blocks, which will expire automatically. 
• If you don't use Screen Time Allowance:
  • Grant commands will only impact your child's device if a Manual or Scheduled Block is active. (eg. If you send a timed grant, the device will not automatically block when the timed grant expires.)
• If you use Screen Time Allowance:
  • Sending a Block will prevent your child from being able to play their Allowance timer.
  • Sending a Grant will unblock your child's device, without your child needing to use any of their daily Allowance time.
