## What is DoomLift?

DoomLift blocks the apps that steal your attention and break your focus — and makes you earn them back with real exercise. No streaks, no gimmicks, no surprise paywall. Just an honest trade and a healthier habit: move your body, buy your time.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Pick the apps you want to block — Instagram, TikTok, X, every distraction that pulls you in. They're shielded with Apple's Screen Time until you earn your way in.

2. Do real exercise. Every minute you earn is yours to spend.

3. Unlock. You prepay a fixed block of time and a live countdown shows exactly what you bought — in the app, in the Dynamic Island, and on your Lock Screen.

4. Done early? Lock back and the unused seconds are refunded — instantly.

The countdown is the money. Your remaining time is derived from the wall clock, not an in-memory timer. Close the app, restart your phone — your time is still your time.

EARN IT YOUR WAY

• Camera rep counter — push-ups, pull-ups, squats, sit-ups, and jumping jacks, counted on-device with Apple's Vision framework. No third-party SDK, no account. The camera never records or uploads anything; frames go straight from the sensor to the pose detector and are discarded.

• Apple Health — workouts and steps credit automatically, with anchored queries so nothing is ever double-counted.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Everything happens on your device. There is no server, no tracking, and no analytics. Your activity, your blocked apps, and your banked time never leave your iPhone.

Stop doomscrolling. Start doomlifting.
