About
What if your phone unlocked itself when you walked?
StepLimit is a self-restriction tool for people who think they spend too much time on their phone. You set a daily step goal. Your chosen apps stay locked behind a Screen Time shield until you've walked far enough. When you hit your goal, the shield clears — automatically. No willpower required, no daily promises, no "just one more video."
This is friction, not a cage. You decide what to restrict. You decide the goal. You can always grant yourself a grace pass on a rest day.
WHAT YOU GET FREE
• Block one distracting app of your choice
• Convert HealthKit steps into earned screen time
• 3 grace passes per month (for rest days, sick days, real life)
• 7-day step history
• Daily auto-reset at midnight
PREMIUM
• Block any number of apps simultaneously
• Block whole categories — Social, Games, Entertainment
• 6 grace passes a month (twice the rest days)
• Apple Watch companion — track steps without your phone
• Full step history, every day, forever
• Custom step thresholds per app
PRIVACY
Your step data, app restrictions, and grace-pass ledger live entirely on your device. No account, no servers, no third-party analytics. Crash diagnostics via Sentry only, with all personal identifiers stripped.
The walk-to-unlock mechanic and the Screen Time integration are completely free. Premium unlocks supplementary features.
Walk first. Scroll later.

What's New in StepLimit
1.0.3
June 30, 2026
Your earned time no longer vanishes at midnight. • Time you earn now carries past midnight and resets in the early morning, so a late night reading doesn't wipe the minutes you walked for. • A gentle heads-up before your time resets, so it never disappears without warning. • Reliability fixes under the hood.
