Your phone is stealing your life four seconds at a time. EarnScroll takes it back. EarnScroll is the screen time app that makes you work for every minute on Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube, Snapchat, Reddit, and any other app that's quietly rotting your brain. No more mindless unlocks. No more "just five minutes" that turns into two hours. If you want the dopamine, you earn the dopamine. HOW IT WORKS Pick the apps that waste your time. EarnScroll blocks them. To unlock them, you complete a real-world healthy habit like push-ups, squats, steps walked, or our favorite: going outside and touching actual grass. Finish the challenge, earn minutes, scroll guilt-free. Run out of minutes? Drop and give us twenty. EARN SCREEN TIME WITH - Push-ups, verified by your phone's motion sensors - Squats, same deal, no cheating - Steps, synced with Apple Health or Google Fit - Outdoor time, confirmed by GPS so you actually leave the house - Custom habits like meditation, reading, or water intake BLOCK THE APPS THAT BLOCK YOUR LIFE Lock Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat, X, Facebook, Reddit, dating apps, mobile games, anything you wish you used less. EarnScroll enforces the block at the system level. No willpower required. The app physically will not open until you've earned the time. WHY EARN SCROLL IS DIFFERENT Most screen time apps just shame you with a weekly report. Cool, now what? Most app blockers are too easy to bypass. One tap on "ignore limit" and you're back in the hole. EarnScroll is built on a simple trade: your health for your habits. Every minute of scroll time is a minute you invested in your body. You don't quit social media. You earn it. BUILT FOR - Anyone trying to break a phone addiction - Parents who want kids earning screen time instead of inheriting it - Students who need to focus - Gym-goers turning rest days into rep days - Remote workers fighting the Slack-to-Twitter spiral - People who genuinely want to touch grass more FEATURES - Custom exchange rates so you set how many push-ups equal one minute of Instagram - Streak tracking to build momentum and watch your habit chains grow - Daily and weekly stats showing exactly how much you earned versus spent - Hard mode with no rollover minutes, no banking, no mercy - Family mode to set rules for kids that they can't override - Focus sessions for full lockdown during deep work - Habit history to track fitness wins alongside screen time wins THE PHILOSOPHY We're not anti-phone. We're anti-autopilot. The problem isn't that you use Instagram. The problem is that you opened it without deciding to. EarnScroll puts a small, healthy speed bump between you and the infinite scroll. Over time, that speed bump rewires your defaults. You get fitter. You get outside. You get your attention back. And when you do scroll, you actually enjoy it, because you earned it. DOWNLOAD EARNSCROLL AND START EARNING Stop letting algorithms decide how your day goes. Trade reps for minutes. Trade steps for scrolls. Trade grass for the gram. Your future self is watching. Earn your screen time. Earn your life back.

our apps don't open for free anymore. Pay for them in push-ups. Scroll Fit locks the apps that eat your day — social feeds, video, games, whatever you keep reaching for without deciding to. To get them back, you do reps. The camera counts them, and every rep turns into screen time. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick the apps you want locked. Scroll Fit shields them the moment you try to open one. 2. Do push-ups or squats in front of your phone. Scroll Fit watches your form and counts each rep automatically — no tapping, no honor system. 3. Cash in. Your reps become minutes. Unlock right away, or bank them for later. REPS THE CAMERA COUNTS Prop your phone up and start moving. Scroll Fit tracks your body position in real time and counts push-ups and squats on its own, adjusting to how far away you are and which way you're facing. Nothing is recorded — the camera feed is processed on your device and never saved or uploaded. BANK YOUR MINUTES Finished a set but don't need your apps yet? Save the time instead. Your banked minutes sit untouched until you want them, so a morning workout can pay for a break tonight. Withdraw as much or as little as you need. SET YOUR OWN PRICE One minute per rep is the default. Make it harder or easier whenever you want — set the rate for push-ups and squats separately, and change your mind as your fitness improves. If ten minutes of Instagram should cost ten push-ups, that's up to you. A REAL LOCK, NOT A REMINDER Scroll Fit uses Apple's Screen Time controls, so a blocked app is genuinely blocked. Instead of a notification you swipe away, you get a shield — and a workout standing between you and the feed. When your earned time runs out, the lock comes back on its own. BUILT FOR THE 40-SECOND DECISION The whole point is the moment you pick up your phone without meaning to. Scroll Fit makes that moment cost something small and useful. Most people find the friction alone cuts their scrolling — and the ones who push through end up doing a few hundred push-ups a week they wouldn't have done otherwise. WHAT YOU GET • Block any app on your device with Apple Screen Time • Automatic push-up and squat counting with on-device pose tracking • Earn screen time by the rep, at a rate you set • Save unused minutes and spend them whenever • See exactly how much time you have left before the lock returns • No account, no sign-up — open the app and go Scroll Fit doesn't ask you to delete your apps or white-knuckle your way to discipline. It just puts a small price on them. Get stronger, or scroll less. Either way you win.
