What changed in Bail, newest first. No marketing, just the list.
Status: pre-release, not in the App Store yet
Tested on a real iPhone, and a website
The Screen Time lock passed its first device test: with the passcode set, iOS asks for it before Bail's access can be switched off.
Found on the same test: "Forgot Passcode?" falls back to your own Apple Account. The setup now tells you to use a friend's Apple Account for Passcode Recovery.
New setting: keep automatic time on while locked in, so the clock can't be moved past the end of a session.

Pardons, the drums, and the name Bail
Ending a session early now costs a pardon: 3 a month, each after a 15-minute wait you can cancel.
The timer is two rolling number drums, hours and minutes.
Hold Lock in for two seconds to skip the confirmation.
The whole screen goes dark while you're locked in.
The adult-website filter became a setting that stays on whatever mode you're in.
The Screen Time passcode setup: a passcode you type but never see, with an encrypted recovery ticket.
