Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about how Rally blocks content, tracks time, and fits into your family's setup.

Does Rally work on my kid's school Chromebook?

Yes. The Rally browser extension runs inside Chrome or Edge without needing admin rights, so it works on school-managed Chromebooks and laptops the same way it does on a personal device. It applies at home; school hours remain governed by your school's own device management.

Do I need admin rights on the device?

No. The browser extension is designed to install and run without administrator or MDM access — that's the whole point, since school-issued devices don't give parents that access.

What happens when my child's coins run out?

Limited sites and apps (games, social, video) stop being reachable as soon as the balance hits zero — the extension picks this up on its next sync. Free sites and any sites you've explicitly allowed stay available regardless of coin balance.

Is Rally free?

Rally has a free Basic plan that covers up to two children, assignments, coins, and basic activity history. Premium adds unlimited children, auto-approval rules, detailed analytics, and priority support, billed through the iOS or Android app.

Does Rally read my kid's messages or browsing content?

No. Rally tracks domain-level visits and time spent per site to apply blocking rules and report screen time — it does not read page content, messages, search queries, or keystrokes.

Can Rally block apps, not just websites?

Yes. The browser extension blocks in-browser activity, and the Rally app — installed from the Gears tab on your child's profile — blocks games, streaming clients, and other apps outside the browser directly on the device. No router or network setup is involved.

What ages is Rally designed for?

Rally is built for kids roughly 6–13, spanning elementary through middle school, with a kid-facing portal that's transparent about what's being tracked rather than a covert monitoring tool.

Can I manage more than one child?

Yes — the free Basic plan supports up to two children per family, and Premium removes that limit entirely.
