Parents with more than one kid how do you honestly handle ipad/tablet sharing 😅

I have a 3yo and 5yo and weekends are becoming chaos every single time i let them use the ipad.

It always starts peacefully then suddenly one wants “5 more minutes”, the other starts crying, then they both want the same game/video at the same time and somehow i end up negotiating like a hostage mediator 😂

I tried timers but the transition feels brutal. especially for the younger one when the ipad suddenly gets taken away.

I started looking for apps that focus more on fair sharing / taking turns peacefully but honestly all i find are heavy parental control apps, blocking apps, tracking apps etc

Maybe im searching wrong but i cant find something simple made specifically for siblings sharing one device

Does anyone know an app for this ?

otherwise im seriously starting to think about building one myself lol
