An app that really helps

I like that this app is a guide towards my desired behavior not a hard block. I can still unlock it if I have to, but there is enough resistance that I don’t do it willy nilly. Great app.

Happy

This a great app to hold yourself accountable and make sure you get your steps in!

Just What I Needed

I’ve been pretty sedentary lately and doom scrolling on my phone, a lot more than I’d like to admit. To the point where I’ve been slowly developing a shopping addiction. I’ve been struggling to stay off of shopping apps. This app helps me lock my shopping apps keeping me off of them for most of the day and re-locking them at midnight. This motivates me to get some steps in to unlock the apps. Funny enough because I’m feeling so good about getting my steps in my desire to shop isn’t as intense. This app has been a huge help to me and I’m glad I got it.

Great concept at a cost

I’m really disappointed this costs money. I was so excited and was looking forward to setting up this app for my weight loss journey but the second i saw it costs money i deleted it. Sad.

Hi! Thank you so much for the kind words about the concept, that genuinely means a lot. WalkBlock does require a subscription to support our development costs. We offer a 7-day free trial on our yearly plan so you can experience everything before committing. Would love to have you give it a shot on your weight loss journey! It’s a great experience, we think you will love it! You can also consider following our socials where we host giveaways and promotions!

Good App

Had some weird issues—likely just app updates and such—but it works now.
