Your apps stay locked until you earn them. Ten push-ups buys ten minutes of scrolling, and your iPhone's camera counts every rep. No account, no tracking, no excuses. Just reps for time. HOW IT WORKS • Pick the apps that eat your day. Repbolt locks them with Apple's Screen Time. • Prop your phone up and do a set. Every rep adds minutes to your bank. • Spend minutes to unlock your apps for a while. When time's up, they lock again. SIX WAYS TO EARN Push-ups, squats, pull-ups, sit-ups, jumping jacks and plank. Harder moves pay more: one push-up is a minute, one pull-up is three, and a 30-second plank buys six. COUNTED BY YOUR CAMERA, ON YOUR IPHONE Repbolt watches your form in real time and only counts full reps, and it counts them out loud so you never have to look at the screen. Frames are analyzed on your device and thrown away. Nothing is ever recorded or uploaded. GOALS, CHALLENGES AND MEDALS • A daily rep goal that closes a ring on your Home screen. • The 30-day challenge: a target that climbs every day, from 10 push-ups to 50. • 18 achievements to unlock, from your first set to an unbreakable 30-day streak. • Personal bests for every exercise, and a weekly card you can share. BUILT SO YOU CAN'T CHEAT YOURSELF • App groups with their own price, so your worst apps cost the most. • Strict mode: locked apps can't be deleted to get around the lock. • A bank cap, so one big workout can't buy a lost weekend. • Apple Health steps: every walk tops up your minutes. REPBOLT PRO Repbolt is free to download, and using it needs Repbolt Pro. Try a set during setup, then start with 3 days free on the yearly plan, or go monthly. • All six exercises • Several app groups, each with its own price • Apple Health steps • Strict mode • 30-minute unlocks • Custom rep values • 30-day stats PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account and no servers. Your workouts, Screen Time choices and Health steps stay on your iPhone. Repbolt doesn't use analytics or ads. In 20 languages. From the maker of Deadbolt and Dawnlock.
