Fantastic
What an awesome idea. To gamify Fitness and use screen time as a hostage/goal. Beautifully done and executed this app is a must have.

Great app to keep productivity
I love using this app to track my fitness outputs and make sure that I’m not spending hours mindlessly scrolling on my phone. It’s motivated me to take more walks during the work day, instead of staring at my phone. Super easy and intuitive to use, couldn’t recommend it enough. If you’re looking for a way to motivate yourself to be more active and decrease your screen time, download this app!!

Super cool! I use it for walks too, and glad it’s helping.
Good self motivation tool
Great APP! I love that the premise of the app is consistent with the general psychology of addictive behaviors: change the balance of “pleasure” and “pain” behaviors and get help with accountability.

You nailed it! That’s exactly how the app was designed - rewire reward pathways 🎁 💪
A fresh approach to motivation
There are basically 4 means of behavior modification: positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, positive punishment, and negative punishment. Almost all the apps out there for productivity are positive reinforcement. That’s great for some people, but collecting virtual badges isn’t for me. I need something with more teeth. By blocking apps until you hit your goals, this app’s utilization of negative punishment is a much stronger source of motivation and it might be the solution for others out there like me.

Great for gating social media
I use GoalGate daily. Until I reach a steps threshold it blocks Twitter for me. Is the only app I have found that can do that!
Great meditation motivator!
This app is a great motivator and awesome tool for helping me to consistently practice meditation. I've been trying to meditate more regularly but have struggled to stick to a schedule and hold myself accountable. It's incredibly helpful that the app manages this for me with its scheduled app locking feature. The effort involved in accessing the GoalGate app to try and "bypass" my goal in order to unlock my desired app feels more burdensome than simply completing the meditation itself, which shows how effectiveit is. I also love that I can tweak my commitment levels, deciding how many breaks I want based on my goals. If you want an awesome tool to encourage and motivate you to get things done, whether that be meditating, exercising, or cleaning, definitely give this app a shot!

Got me working out again!
Without GoalGate, I wouldn’t be running again (instead I’d be doomscrolling TikTok…) This app has truly helped me get back on a fitness routine in a way that’s actually fun. Love the ability to set a schedule so I don’t even have to think about it (and love the cute sloth Dozer). I’ve traded screen time for workouts ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
