Kids Mode v1.1.0
Kids Mode now looks and feels like part of Onion OS — every screen renders
through Onion's own theme engine — plus smarter timer controls and a
PIN system that can't lock you out.
Highlights
- Native Onion look: your active theme's background, fonts, and colors
everywhere — header bar with battery, footer button hints, and an
Apps-menu-style parent menu with full-width rows - Add play time inline: on the parent menu row, ◀ ▶ picks +5…+50 min
and A applies — with a live preview of what the remaining time becomes - Turn off timer: new parent-menu option that removes any running timer
entirely for unlimited play (until re-armed or time is added again) - Auto power-off: if the "Time's up!" screen is left alone for 5 minutes,
the device shuts down cleanly instead of draining the battery overnight - PIN improvements: A confirms (up/down changes a digit, left/right
moves); a wrong PIN lets you retry on the same screen; and the PIN now
survives app updates via a snapshot inSaves/kidmode/— if no PIN exists
at all, the unlock gesture asks you to set a new one instead of locking
you out
Install
- Download
KidsMode.zipbelow - Copy the
KidsModefolder intoApp/on your SD card (so it becomes
/App/KidsMode/) - Reboot, then arm from Apps → Kids Mode
Updating from v1.0.0: replacing the KidsMode folder resets the PIN
once (the update-proof snapshot didn't exist yet). If the device was armed,
hold SELECT+START and you'll be asked to set a new PIN. From v1.1.0
onward, the PIN survives updates.
Requires Onion OS 4.3+. Tested on a Miyoo Mini Plus running Onion
4.4-beta; base Mini and Mini V4 are supported in code but less tested —
reports welcome.
