Your phone. Your rules. BurnToScroll flips the script on screen-time apps. Instead of begging you to put your phone down, it lets you earn the right to use it — one rep at a time. How it works Pick what to block (TikTok, Instagram, X, Reddit — anything). Choose a daily exercise goal. When you're out of screen time, your apps lock until you earn more. 1 pushup = 1.5 minutes. 1 squat = 45 seconds. 30 seconds of plank = 3 minutes — and you can tune every rate yourself. The AI camera counts every rep — no manual tapping, no cheating. Why it works Willpower-based blockers fail because they fight your brain. BurnToScroll replaces the dopamine loop. The same hit you got from doomscrolling, you now get from finishing a set. Real movement, real reward. What you get • AI rep counting via on-device pose detection — no cloud, no uploads • Real app blocking through Apple Family Controls — the apps actually lock • Three exercises: pushups, squats, planks • Custom rates: set your own earn rate for each exercise • Streaks, 31 achievements, 15 levels — earn your XP, not just your minutes • Beautiful weekly and monthly progress charts • Shareable workout cards for Instagram, TikTok, X • Works fully offline (we only hit the network for purchases) • No account. No email. No tracking. What's different Most screen-time apps ask you to behave. BurnToScroll makes you sweat. No mindfulness lectures, no shame timers — just a clean trade: move your body, unlock your phone. Try it free 3-day free trial. After that, pick weekly or annual — cancel anytime. Privacy first Your camera never leaves your phone. Pose detection runs entirely on-device. We don't see your video, your face, or your form. We don't have an account system to leak. Built for people who've tried every blocker and lost. Time to earn it instead.

Stop doomscrolling. Start earning it. RepScreen is the #1 screen time control app that makes you exercise before you scroll. Use your phone less, move your body more — and actually enjoy the process. HOW IT WORKS: Every minute of exercise earns you a coin. Every coin buys you a minute of screen time. Want to open Instagram, TikTok, or X? Do your push-ups first. It's that simple — and that powerful. AI REP COUNTING: Just prop up your phone and start moving. RepScreen uses your camera to automatically count reps in real time — no wearables, no manual input. Tracks push-ups, squats, sit-ups, and more with precision. BLOCK ADDICTIVE APPS: Set limits on your most-used apps. When your minutes run out, RepScreen locks them — the only way back in is to work out. GAMIFY YOUR FITNESS: Level up, climb ranks, and fight bosses in Journey Mode. Challenge yourself to beat personal bests, earn XP, and unlock new tiers from Rookie all the way to Transcendent. Fitness has never felt this addictive. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS: Monitor streaks, active days, session history, and rank rating (RR) across every exercise. Compete with yourself — and win. Note: The main features of the app do require an active subscription.
