Walk first. Then scroll. ScrollShield helps you put a healthy pause between you and the apps you open on autopilot. Choose the apps that pull you in, walk with Pip, and turn your steps into time you decide when to use. Every 100 steps recorded through Motion & Fitness adds one minute to today's balance. HOW IT WORKS 1. CHOOSE YOUR APPS Use Apple's private app picker to select the apps you want to make more intentional. 2. WALK WITH PIP See today's steps and your progress toward the next earned minute while Pip walks with you. 3. CHOOSE YOUR TIME When you are ready, choose a short session. Unused minutes stay in today's balance. 4. SEE THE BIGGER PICTURE Review weekly and monthly steps alongside earned, used, and available time. DESIGNED TO FEEL CLEAR • A simple exchange: 100 steps = 1 minute • Earned, used, and available time in one calm view • Weekly and monthly activity history • Automatic light and dark appearance • A friendly walking companion instead of streak pressure • No account required • No location tracking PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your app selection and activity stay on your device. ScrollShield does not read your browsing history or the content inside your apps. Apple's Screen Time framework keeps your app selection private. Walk a little. Make the next scroll a choice.
