TURN SCREEN TIME INTO MOVEMENT Kinetic is the app blocker that makes you earn access to distracting apps with exercise. Do one rep, earn one minute. Your body becomes the key to your phone. STOP DOOMSCROLLING WITHOUT RELYING ON WILLPOWER Regular screen time limits are easy to ignore. Kinetic adds a simple physical checkpoint between an impulse and the endless feed. Want to open a blocked app? Move first. HOW KINETIC WORKS 1. Choose the apps, categories, or websites that distract you 2. Kinetic blocks them using Apple’s Screen Time technology 3. Spin the Fate Wheel or choose an exercise 4. Point your camera at yourself and complete your reps 5. Every completed rep earns one minute of access THREE WAYS TO EARN SCREEN TIME • Push-ups • Squats • Jumping jacks ON-DEVICE REP COUNTING Kinetic uses your iPhone camera and on-device pose detection to count movement in real time. The counter checks your motion through each rep, helping reject incomplete or random movements. BUILT TO KEEP YOU MOVING • Block individual apps or entire categories • Earn access instead of bypassing a timer • Let the Fate Wheel choose your next exercise • Build streaks and hit daily XP goals • Level up and unlock achievements • Track lifetime reps for every exercise • Use Kinetic without an account WHY KINETIC FEELS DIFFERENT Most focus tools ask you to resist the urge to scroll. Kinetic redirects it. Every attempt to open a distracting app becomes a chance to move, reset your attention, and earn your time intentionally.

You know exactly how the experience works before deciding whether it is right for you. Less scrolling. More movement. Stronger habits. Download Kinetic and move to unlock.
