Slide — Van Gogh tablet

Van Gogh at the unlock — slides present in portrait and landscape.

The heart of it

Many ways to meet a moment.

Not every encounter should be a test. MindFeast supports various slide types for different types of engagement.

A question slide over a Hubble photograph asking what happens inside a nebula, with three answers to choose from.

Question · Choices

Ask, and check

Multiple choice: Pick the right answer from a set of options. A correct choice completes the slide. Use for first passes and quick review.

A question slide with a watercolor of a girl in front of a rising stock chart, asking how much of the money you earn you should invest, with a typed-answer field.

Question · Typed

Recall from memory

No options given. The child answers from memory, with accepted variants and optional hints keeping it fair. Harder than multiple choice.

An informational slide presenting Renoir’s Two Sisters, On the Terrace (1881), titled and dated.

Informational

Present, don’t quiz

Art, nature, maps, and passages shown full-screen. The child looks, reads, and continues. Picture study lives here.

An audio slide: a watercolor cello resting against a chair beside a lit candle, with a Play button, the question “Who composed this song?”, and a field for the child’s answer.

Audio

Listen closely.

A movement plays before the screen opens: Bach, Chopin, a poem read aloud. Ask who composed it, or simply let it play. Composer study lives here.

An essay slide asking the child to explain taxation without representation in their own words.

Essay

Invite narration

An open-ended prompt answered in the child’s own words. Any response completes it, the writing is kept for you, and the prompt retires. A one-time assignment.

A gratitude slide over statues of two children at dusk, asking “What are you grateful for today?”

Gratitude

A recurring practice

Create a recurring gratitude practice. Entries accumulate in a gratitude journal only a parent can read.

Parents hold the keys

You decide what the moment holds.

Choose the slides

Activate and retire slides whenever you like, and require one or several per unlock. This week’s history on Monday; Renoir by Friday.

Review everything

Completion stats, essay responses, and the gratitude journal wait behind a PIN-protected parent admin screen.

Use your own media

Slides take your images and audio, or media from a URL. Grandma’s watercolor painting is as first-class as a museum’s Renoir.

Both orientations

Slides present in portrait and landscape, sized for phones and 10-inch tablets alike.

AI-assisted authoring

Draft with AI. Decide as a parent.

Writing a week of slides by hand takes time most families don’t have. MindFeast includes manual and Gemini-assisted slide creation: describe what you want, let the model draft the text and imagery, then preview and edit before anything reaches a child.

The drafting is assisted, the judgment isn’t. Nothing ships to the lock screen without a parent approving it.

Respectful economics

Buy it once. It’s yours.

The core app is a one-time purchase. No advertising, no tracking, no engagement metrics.

Honest answers

Asked plainly.

Is this a screen-time limiter?

No. MindFeast doesn’t count minutes or block apps. It redirects a moment that was already happening: the screen time you allow now begins with something you chose. Limiting screen time is still ideal. MindFeast is for the screen time that happens anyway.

Can my child skip the slide?

No, slides cannot be skipped. The device unlocks after the required slides are completed. You set how many slides are required.

Where does the content come from?

Mostly from you. A few starter slides are included, but the majority of content should be created by you, for your child. You can make slides by hand or with AI assistance, and first-party packs are planned.

What does it run on?

Android phones and tablets. Slides live on the device; AI-assisted authoring calls Gemini only when you use it, with your own API key.
