- Needs review: If AI is uncertain, you'll see it in "Pending Review"
- Rejected: If the photo clearly doesn't match, the child can retry

📶 WiFi Control
You have full control over each child's internet access, independent of their earned time.
Block and unblock controls for each child
Instant Block
Click the Block button next to a child to immediately cut their internet access. Use this for:
- Dinner time
- Homework time
- When they need to get off their device NOW
Unblock Options
Click Unblock and choose how long:

Until midnight
Rest of the day
⚠️ Note: Manual unblock is separate from earned time. If you unblock for 1 hour, it doesn't use their earned minutes - it's bonus time from you.
