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.
