About Family Tech Hub
Family Tech Hub is part of the phyrenix.com network — a family of single-purpose sites that each answer one area of real life honestly and free. This hub covers the practical side of family tech: screen-time budgets by age, family data-plan needs, device upgrade timing, parental-controls priorities, social-media readiness, wifi mesh checks, school-tech requirements, online friendships, gaming budgets, app permission reviews, phone-free zones, holiday and school-night screen plans, tech-free activity swaps, cyberbullying response and a family tech contract builder — warm, practical, no shame and no hype.

What we do
Every tool on this site answers instantly from our own knowledge base and calculators — no AI cost, no waiting, no account. The free answer is designed to be genuinely useful on its own: an honest number, a clear next step, and a plain-English explanation of the family-tech habit or guideline behind it.
The paid report
When you want a deeper, personalised written report, it costs $2.95 — about one cup of coffee. The fee pays for a detailed written plan for your family's situation and keeps the free tools free.
Who we are
Independent operators, not doctors, psychologists, lawyers or financial advisers. We sell clarity, not services — we never recommend a specific professional or product, and we are not trying to convince you that your family's screens are a crisis only we can fix.
Our promise
Educational only, always honest about limits — every family differs and every child develops at their own pace, rules and app policies vary by country and age, and the tools give plain-language age-based estimates and next steps, not professional opinions. If a child is in immediate danger, contact your local emergency services right away.
