Sqroll turns screen time into something you earn — by living well. Instead of another app that just blocks you, Sqroll gives your scroll a price: the apps that steal your time open to a shield, not a feed. To get back in, you earn it — and every way in makes you healthier. EARN THROUGH A LIFESTYLE Connect Apple Health and your healthy habits become your fuel: • Real workouts earn scroll time minute-for-minute • A 10,000-step day drops a bonus into your balance • Fall asleep by your target bedtime and wake up to more time Prefer to earn on the spot? Do a few squats — the camera counts your reps, no equipment needed. Unused minutes roll over to tomorrow, so you can bank ahead. STAY IN CONTROL A live budget tank shows exactly where your day is going — calm green to over-the-line red — so you always know where you stand. GROW, DON'T ROT When the itch to scroll hits, micro-learn instead. The Learn feed is the good part of a feed with none of the brainrot: mind-bending facts, cultures from around the world, and book summaries you can finish in minutes. MEET BUN Your accountability pet thrives when you move and fades when you scroll — your habits, made impossible to ignore. GO DEEPER • Deep Focus sessions you can't quit early • Hard Mode — apps stay locked, only real effort unlocks them • Streaks, freezes, and weekly & monthly wrapped reports PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your pose data is processed on-device. Health data is used only to credit your scroll time. Scroll less. Know more. Sqroll is a healthier way to be.
