Move first. Scroll later. Instead of restricting yourself with willpower alone, MoveFirst ties your screen time to physical activity, every workout you complete earns minutes you can spend on the apps you want to limit. Need minutes right now? Do a quick set of pushups or squats in front of your camera. Spend less time on distracting apps and more time being active. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose which apps to block: social media, news, games, anything you want to use less. 2. Set a daily activity goal from 1 minute to 2 hours. You decide what counts: running, walking, cycling, strength training, yoga, hiking, swimming, HIIT. 3. Workouts sync through Apple Health. MoveFirst reads activity automatically from any Health-connected app - Apple Watch, Strava, Strong, Peloton, Whoop, and many more. No manual logging. 4. Or earn on the spot with an Instant Workout. Do pushups or squats in front of your camera and your reps are counted as you go. Every set earns minutes and counts toward your daily goal and streak. 5. Spend earned minutes. When a blocked app is opened, you'll see a screen with your current balance of screen time minutes earned. Tap to spend a few minutes, or close the app and earn more first. FEATURES • Instant Workouts - do pushups or squats in front of your camera and earn minutes on the spot, no fitness app needed • Daily goal and streaks - track consistency and build a real habit • Fitness and screen-time insights - track your progress, balance, and trends over time • Hard mode - require yourself to hit your daily goal before any screen time is earned • Customisable reward rules - weight each activity to match your goals.
