PushCount
Read full descriptionHide full description
Pay for your screen time in push-ups. PushCount locks the apps that eat your day. Do a set to open them. Free — the whole thing, not a trial. IS THIS YOU? • You reach for your phone before you're even out of bed • "Just five minutes" turns into two hours • You set Screen Time — and bypass it in one second • You want to move more, but never find the time HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose the apps that eat your day — social, news, games. 2. They stop opening. 3. Lay your phone on the floor and do a set. The front camera counts every rep. Your apps open for a while, then lock again automatically. THREE THINGS OTHER APPS GET WRONG 1. They charge. Our complete product is free. Not a trial. Not seven days. 2. They count badly. When a rep is missed you can see why — a live meter shows what the camera actually saw — and you can fix the count on the spot. 3. They say you can't escape. Of course you can escape — just delete the app. We don't pretend we can stop you. We only make sure the price you pay is real. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Every camera frame is processed on this iPhone. Nothing leaves your device, and nothing is saved. No account. No sign-up. ALSO INSIDE • Knee and incline push-ups count too — the counter calibrates to your own range • A training plan that builds from your current max toward 50 or 100 in a row • Apple Health sync • iCloud sync across your devices Terms of Use: https://qumge.com/en/terms Privacy Policy: https://qumge.com/en/privacy
