YOUR BODY IS THE CONTROLLER. A 10 Second commitment is all you need to get started! 10 Second Hero turns real exercise into an arcade brawler. Your actual push-ups, squats and star-jumps are counted on-device and drive every punch. Ten seconds of sweat at a time, you punch your way from Couch Potato to GREEK GOD. NOW THE WHOLE WORLD IS WATCHING Your reps used to be your own business. This update turns them into a scoreboard. - Four global Game Center leaderboards: Kinetic Power, Lifetime Reps, Villains Felled and Gear Collected. See your world rank, and the exact percentage of heroes you are ahead of. - Turn any run into a CHALLENGE CARD: your hero under a neon sunburst, your biggest number in lights, and a dare pointed at whoever sees it. Records name the movement: "14 PUSH-UPS IN 10 SECONDS", never anonymous reps. - Render it as a CHALLENGE VIDEO for TikTok, Reels and Stories. Your hero lands in a shockwave, your number counts up out of a glitch, and BEAT ME drops out of the sky into a cloud of smoke. With epic sound! - Fire a GHOST CHALLENGE and your record haunts your friend's next sprint as a live target. The buzzer calls it: GHOST BEATEN, or RUN IT BACK. Ties go to the challenger. REAL MOVEMENT, REAL REPS - Push-ups counted by the Face ID 'TrueDepth scanner', nothing is recorded or leaves your device. - Squats and star-jumps are tracked by motion sensors. - Sensor-verified records wear a stamp that tap mode cannot earn. - Prefer to tap? Tap-Only mode lets everyone play, and plays exactly the same. BATTLE THE STAGNANT VILLAINS A rogue's gallery of foes, each born from stillness, stands between you and greatness. They feed on your inertia; you fight back with motion. Every boss you topple is another excuse defeated. EVOLVE YOUR HERO Climb eleven evolution tiers, from Couch Potato to GREEK GOD, and unlock a secret final form. Earn gear, open Lunch Boxes, and ascend. COME BACK TOMORROW One 10-second sprint a day builds your streak, and earns Chrono-Freezes that quietly bridge the days when life gets in the way. Milestones, freeze rules and a personal record for every stance live on the streak card. KNOW YOUR OWN LEGEND Tap your name for the full record: world rank, lifetime reps, longest streak, war record, gear, vault, and your Time in the Arena ticking live. IT COUNTS FOR REAL Syncs your sprints to Apple Health as HIIT workouts, so your effort counts toward your Activity rings. A GAME BUILT TO BE FAIR This is your journey: your hero, your effort, your ascent. Every evolution tier, from Couch Potato to GREEK GOD, is earned through real reps alone; none of them can be bought. Your hero rises on sweat, not spending. Turn ten seconds of sweat into a hero! Download 10 Second Hero and start your rebellion against stillness.
