The only unlock button is your body. PushBlock shields your distracting apps until you earn them back, one pushup at a time. No "tap ignore." No loopholes. If you want in, you work for it. Other blockers ask nicely, and you bypass them in two taps. PushBlock is different: it uses Apple Screen Time to make blocking real, and the only way past the shield is to put your phone down and do a pushup. Your camera counts the reps. You earn the minutes. You spend them on the apps that were eating your day. IMPOSSIBLE TO BYPASS Built on Apple's Screen Time engine. When an app is blocked, it stays blocked, until you earn time the hard way. EARN YOUR SCREEN TIME 1 pushup = 2 minutes. Your camera counts every rep in real time. Bank them into your daily pool and spend them when you choose. GET FIT WHILE YOU CUT BACK Every doomscroll urge becomes a set of pushups. Less screen time, more strength, without thinking about it. BLOCK WHAT STEALS YOUR FOCUS TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit: block everything, or pick your worst offenders. Keep the apps you actually need. BUILD A STREAK Stay under your limit and keep your streak alive. Daily quests keep you honest. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick the apps to block. 2. Try to open one, and PushBlock shields it. 3. Do pushups to earn minutes, then spend them. That's the deal. "I got ripped and lost my social media addiction." "I finally feel free from my phone." "I feel like I got my brain back." You don't quit a habit. You replace it. Download PushBlock and make your phone earn its place in your day. PushBlock requires Screen Time permission to block apps. A subscription unlocks full blocking after a free trial; terms shown in-app. Cancel anytime. If you have any ideas or questions, please email us at hello@mathroda.dev *THE APP REQUIRE A SUBSCRIPTION.
