"Better by SBM" is the official companion app for the 12-week virtual group coaching program, BETTER by Slow Burn Method. If you keep starting, failing, and restarting despite your best efforts, the plan isn't the problem — it's consistency. This app is designed to help you build the 5 core lifestyle habits required to achieve your fitness goals without feeling overwhelmed: Sleeping enough Walking often Exercising regularly Eating enough protein Limiting indulgences HOW THE APP WORKS WITH YOUR PROGRAM: • The Learning Phase (Weeks 1-9): Build habits without pressure. Focus on one action every day and track your effort every night in under 20 seconds. • The Testing Phase (Weeks 10-12): Test your new lifestyle. You will learn to moderate your efforts by setting a floor and a ceiling for each habit and thrive in that range. Challenge yourself not to be intense, but to be consistent. Lose the 'all or nothing' mindset, stop relying on motivation, and become someone who follows through. Note: This app is a companion tool. It requires an active coaching enrollment and pre-existing account to access. There are no in-app purchases or public registrations.

Stroll turns your steps into screen time. Stroll is a step counter and gentle app blocker built around one simple loop: walk more, earn screen time, and use distracting apps with more intention. If you want to reduce screen time without quitting everything at once, Stroll gives you a calmer way to change the habit. Move your body, earn app time, and pause before another scroll. Set a daily walking target, choose how many steps unlock a minute, and pick the apps or categories you want to slow down. As you walk, Stroll turns your steps into earned time. When your earned time runs out, Stroll helps pause your chosen apps or categories. That small pause gives you a moment to step away instead of falling into another scroll. Why Stroll: • Turn daily steps into earned screen time • Use a step counter built for digital wellness • Reduce doomscrolling without harsh blocking • Build healthier phone habits with a calm pause • Choose the apps or categories you want to slow down • Track your walking target and step progress • See earned time and used time clearly • Walk to unlock screen time more intentionally • Compare steps on optional global and country leaderboards • Follow daily, weekly, and monthly rankings • Share your rank with friends • Use a clean, lightweight app with no ads How it works: 1. Set your daily walking target 2. Choose how steps earn screen time 3. Pick apps or categories to slow down 4. Walk to earn time 5. Use earned time more intentionally 6. Optionally join the leaderboard for extra motivation Optional Social leaderboards: Want a little extra motivation? Join the Social leaderboard to compare eligible step totals with walkers around the world or in your country. See where you rank today, this week, or this month. You can also share your rank with friends and browse other country leaderboards. Joining is completely optional. Sign in with Apple or Google, confirm your display name and country, and choose whether to participate. You can leave the leaderboard or delete your account at any time. All core Stroll features remain available without signing in. Stroll is for people who want to move more, scroll less, reduce screen time, and build better digital wellness habits without going cold turkey. Privacy-first permissions: Stroll uses Apple Health to read step totals when you allow access. This lets Stroll calculate earned screen time from your walking activity. Stroll uses Apple Screen Time permissions so you can choose apps or categories to pause. Apple keeps Screen Time details private, so Stroll does not see your screen content, messages, or the individual apps inside a selected category. If you choose to join the leaderboard, your display name, optional profile photo, country, eligible step totals, and rank are visible to other leaderboard members. Stroll does not upload your routes, precise location, workouts, heart data, complete Health record, or selected Screen Time apps and categories. All information is handled according to our privacy policy. Support: For feedback or support, contact stepvibecontact@gmail.com Scroll less. Stroll more.
