StepTower vs StepOpen

Turn your steps into a tower. Every floor you reach unlocks the apps you placed there. Spending too much time on your phone? StepTower locks your most distracting apps behind real steps. Place each app on a floor of your tower. The higher the floor, the more steps it takes to unlock. Put casual apps on lower floors and your biggest distractions at the top. Every 1,000 steps unlocks the next floor and the apps on it. What you get: - Lock distracting apps until you walk - Place apps and categories on different tower floors - Unlock each floor with 1,000 steps - Unlock apps as soon as you reach their floor - Complete your daily goal to free everything for the day - Take a 15-minute pause when you need a quick break - Sync steps automatically with Apple Health - Build streaks - Add Home Screen widget for your tower and progress How it works: 1.

StepOpen is the "walk to unlock" app. Lock the apps that distract you (social, video, games) and unlock them once you reach today's step goal. The more you walk, the more of the time your phone was taking comes back to you. Instead of guilt or pressure, it turns moving your body into the "key" - a gentle digital detox habit. It's simple 1. Choose the apps you want to lock 2. Set the steps needed to unlock them (2,000 / 3,000 / 5,000 / 8,000) 3. Until you reach that count, the chosen apps stay locked 4. Walk, and they open automatically Free - Lock up to 2 apps - Unlock step by step as you walk - This week's records (achievements, streaks, charts) - Morning reminder / almost-there notifications - One temporary unlock per day (an escape hatch for when you really need it) StepOpen Pro - Lock unlimited apps - Custom step goals (add unlock targets that fit you) - Schedules / time-of-day rules - Detailed records & insights (month / year, trends) - Strict Mode (rules you can't relax for a set period, for when you're serious) Privacy first Your steps (Health) and your choice of locked apps are, as a rule, processed only on your device and never sent to an external server.
