Scroll Patrol allows users to earn minutes by doing exercises which they can then allocate as screen time to apps that they choose to restrict. Exercises will be all automatically recorded. Exercises like pushups, situps, or squats will be counted via a machine learning algorithm that is entirely local to the application. Exercises like walking, biking, are already tracked by the Apple Health app, and Scroll Patrol simply synchs the data from there! The user has full control over their experience; being able to configure things like exercise reward rates and apps to restrict. If the user feels less confident in their self-control, they can enable a password on the settings page so that reward rates and restricted apps are locked behind a password a trusted friend can remember. No accounts, ads, subscriptions, or event internet required! No user data is collected or stored... like at all. Lower your screen time, and increase your
