Walk first. Unlock later. StepStore helps you turn daily movement into intentional screen time. Instead of blocking your favorite apps forever, StepStore lets you earn unlock minutes by walking, then spend those minutes on the apps you choose. Pick the social, video, shopping, or entertainment apps that tend to pull you in. StepStore keeps them shielded until you build walking credit. When you are ready, use your earned balance to open a short unlock window and use those apps with more intention. SUBSCRIPTION REQUIRED StepStore requires an active subscription to use the app and its features. A free trial may be available for eligible users. Subscription options, trial availability, pricing, and renewal terms are shown in the app before purchase.

You stay in control of what gets managed. • Earn screen-time minutes Every walk adds minutes to your StepStore balance. Your progress, streaks, daily goal, and multiplier help keep the habit visible. • Spend minutes intentionally Use earned minutes to unlock selected apps for short access windows.

You choose which apps StepStore manages, and you can change permissions from your device settings at any time. WHO STEPSTORE IS FOR StepStore is for anyone who wants a healthier relationship with distracting apps without going fully offline.
