Are you wasting years of your life on social media? SweatScroll is not just another screen time blocker. It is a tool for radical transformation. We turn your digital addiction into physical strength. Most blockers are easy to ignore. SweatScroll is different. When your time is up, your distracting apps are locked behind a hard shield. The only way to unlock them? Physical exercise. HOW IT WORKS: Choose Your Enemies: Select the apps that steal your time. Set Your Price: Decide the "exchange rate." Example: 2 reps = 1 minute of screen time. The Shield Activates: When you run out of time, your apps are blocked. Pay the Toll: Use your camera to perform Squats, Push Ups, or Jumping Jacks. AI Verification: Our advanced AI counts your reps in real-time. No cheating allowed. KEY FEATURES: • AI Rep Counting: Uses the front camera to track your form and count reps automatically. Privacy-first: images are processed on-device and never saved. • Hard Blocking: The "Shield" effectively blocks access to selected apps until you complete your workout. • Gamification: Earn badges, level up from "Digital Novice" to "Time Lord," and maintain your streak. • Detailed Stats: Visualize how much time you've reclaimed and how many calories you've burned. • Multiple Exercises: Choose between Squats (Legs), Push Ups (Upper Body), or Jumping Jacks (Cardio). WHY SWEATSCROLL? Willpower is limited. Systems are forever. By attaching a "physical cost" to your "cheap dopamine," you retrain your brain. You will either get fit, or you will stop scrolling. Either way, you win. SUBSCRIPTION PRICING & TERMS: SweatScroll offers two auto-renewing subscription options to unlock full access: • Monthly Premium • Annual Premium (Best Value) Your subscription will automatically renew within 24-hours prior to the end of the current period. You can turn off auto-renewal in your Apple ID Account Settings.

FitLock helps you turn healthy habits into the key that unlocks your apps. Choose the apps or categories you want to block, then set a goal using Apple Health data. When your goal is complete, FitLock unlocks your selected apps. If you do not follow through, there is a real consequence: the apps you chose stay locked. FitLock is designed to help reduce doomscrolling, support better focus, protect your attention span, and create a healthier pause between impulse and action. It can be especially useful for people who struggle with distraction, ADHD-style focus challenges, social media overuse, or compulsive app checking. Instead of relying only on willpower, FitLock gives your brain a clear trade: complete a real-world health goal, then regain access. If you request access before finishing your goal, FitLock uses a 1-hour cooldown period before pausing locks, giving you time to reconsider, let the urge pass, and return to your goal. FitLock works with Apple Health and supports 63 health and habit metrics, including steps, active calories, workouts, exercise minutes, walking and running distance, cycling distance, mindful minutes, sleep, weight, body mass index, water, protein, vitamins, nutrition data, handwashing, toothbrushing, and more. Create flexible health keys: - Block specific apps or entire app categories - Unlock with one Apple Health goal or multiple goals - Use AND logic when every goal must be completed - Use OR logic when any goal can unlock your apps - Set daily reset times or lock until the goal is reached - Track streaks and recent completion history - View current Apple Health metric progress inside the app - Use custom manual goals for habits that are not tracked automatically - Pause locks only after a 1-hour cooldown period FitLock is built for people who want more intentional screen time without relying only on timers, guilt, or willpower. It helps interrupt doomscrolling loops and replaces passive phone use with movement, recovery, hydration, training, mindfulness, or the health goals you already care about. Your progress is powered by Apple Health data and stays focused on your goals. Choose what matters, build your lock, and let your health habits open the door.
