Your phone shouldn't be free. Earn it. Earnit locks the apps that eat your day and keeps them locked until you do something worth doing. Walk. Study. Do push-ups. Every effort turns into minutes you can actually spend. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick the apps you want blocked. They stay shielded by default. 2. Earn minutes β steps from Apple Health, a focused study session, or push-ups counted on device. 3. Spend them in a deliberate 5, 10 or 15 minute session. When it ends, the shield comes back on its own. WHY IT WORKS WHEN TIMERS DON'T A timer asks you to stop. Earnit asks you to trade. There's no "15 more minutes" button, no snooze, no talking yourself past it β the only way through the block is effort you actually did. That small friction is the whole product. WALK TO UNLOCK Steps come straight from Apple Health. Set a rate that suits you and every walk quietly refills your balance. STUDY TO UNLOCK Run a focused study session and bank the time you put in. Built for students who need the phone out of reach until the work is done. PUSH-UPS TO UNLOCK Counted on device, no wearable needed. A set of reps when you want minutes back. SEE WHAT CHANGES A 30-day journey, a daily ledger and monthly totals show screen time going down and effort going up β without guilt, streak-shaming or red warning screens. BUILT PRIVATE Health and motion data stay on your iPhone. Which apps you blocked is never visible to us β iOS keeps that private even from Earnit. Move first. Scroll later. βββ Earnit requires a subscription to unlock app blocking and time earning. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TimeX at none against Earn Screen Time's 2. TimeX also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
