Instead of blocking your favorite apps forever, StepStore lets you earn unlock minutes by walking, then spend those minutes on the apps you choose. Pick the social, video, shopping, or entertainment apps that tend to pull you in. StepStore keeps them shielded until you build walking credit. When you are ready, use your earned balance to open a short unlock window and use those apps with more intention. SUBSCRIPTION REQUIRED StepStore requires an active subscription to use the app and its features. A free trial may be available for eligible users. Subscription options, trial availability, pricing, and renewal terms are shown in the app before purchase.

Every score is broken down on screen, so you always know where a number came from. FIX YOUR SLEEP Every morning you get one specific change to try tonight, based on what happened last night.
