Show HN: A simple, open-source screen-time manager for Windows parents

https://github.com/spamsch/screen-time-manager-for-windows

I built a small open-source app to help parents manage screen time on Windows. My kid needed screen time control but I did not want to use Google Link or create a separate child account or install some software. I wanted something local, simple, and transparent.

This tool allows parents to:

- Define allowed screen-time windows - Automatically lock the session when time is up - Run entirely locally (no cloud, no account, no installation required) - Be controlled via Telegram

It’s written as a lightweight Windows app and is intentionally minimal. The goal was reliability and clarity rather than feature depth.

Happy to answer any questions. Contributions welcome.
