About

Your phone wins every time willpower is the only thing standing between you and the scroll. Stride makes the trade real: you pay in steps. WALK TO EARN Every 500 steps you walk — measured from Apple Health — earns 15 minutes of app-use time. Walk to the shop, take the stairs, pace during a call: it all counts. Wear an Apple Watch? Steps from your iPhone and Watch are merged the way the Health app merges them, so a walk never counts twice. UNLOCK FROM THE SHIELD Open a locked app and Stride's shield appears instead. Tap once and your earned minutes start the pass — no detour through another app. The shield even shows how many more steps you need when you're out of time. TIME ONLY SPENDS WHEN YOU DO Minutes are metered by actual app use. Close the app and the clock stops; whatever you don't use stays banked for the rest of the week. When the budget runs out, your apps re-lock automatically — no timers to babysit. SEE THE WEEK YOU'RE BUILDING A Monday-start step chart with your daily average and best day, an "App Time" breakdown of minutes earned vs used vs ready to spend, estimated distance, and a history of every pass — how long you stayed and what you saved. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Stride reads step counts from Apple Health (never writes to it) and uses Apple's Screen Time APIs to lock the apps you choose. Your Screen Time activity and your steps never leave your device. There is no account, no server, nothing to leak. FREE VS PRO Free: lock 1 app — enough to feel the habit change. Stride Pro: unlimited apps plus whole categories (Social, Games, Entertainment) in one switch. Cancel anytime; your steps always unlock what you've earned. Apple Health is used only to count steps. Screen Time locking is powered by Apple's Family Controls — the apps you lock stay blocked until you've earned your way back in. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS Stride Pro is available as an auto-renewing monthly or yearly subscription, or as a one-time lifetime purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.

What's New in Stride

1.0.3

October 4, 2026

A warmer, calmer Stride, plus fixes to how steps and passes are counted. NEW LOOK • A fresh, cozy design across Today, Apps, Week and Settings. • Today shows your progress to the next reward on a new step ring, with your banked minutes in their own card. • Pull down on Today to refresh your steps from Apple Health. STEPS AND MINUTES • Fixed double-counted steps. If you wear an Apple Watch, a walk recorded by both your iPhone and your Watch used to count twice. It now counts once, the way Apple Health counts it, so you may see fewer steps than before. • Progress now counts your whole week. Steps left over from earlier days carry toward your next 15 minutes, and Today and the shield show how many steps you still need. • Stride can refresh your steps in the background (about once an hour, as iOS allows), so newly earned minutes can be ready on the shield without opening Stride first. • After the Monday reset, the shield no longer offers last week's minutes. • Fixed a bug where a very busy week (more than 30 passes) could give back minutes you had already used. UNLOCKING • Unlocking from the shield now keeps you in the app instead of sending you to the Home Screen. • On iOS 26.5 and later, the shield's "Open Stride" button opens Stride directly. • Removed the Dynamic Island countdown. It rarely appeared and could show the wrong time. Pass notifications still tell you at the halfway point, with 1 minute left, and when your apps re-lock. Updating doesn't reset anything: your steps still come straight from Apple Health, and your locked apps, pass history and settings carry over.
