Step2Scroll vs EarnLock

Every step you take earns screen time. When the balance runs out, your chosen app(s) lock(s). Walk more to unlock them. Step2Scroll is the app blocker that makes your daily steps the currency for app access. No willpower. No timers to set. Just walk. How it works: - Walk -> earn seconds. Earn from 0.1s/step up to 1s/step (adjustable in settings). - Choose which apps to block (currently max one app in free version). Block for example social media to avoid doomscrolling. - When your balance hits zero, blocked apps are locked by iOS Screen Time automatically. - Spend your balance to unlock them for 5, 15 or 30 minutes. - When your unlock session expires, the app(s) are locked again. Tap "Lock Now" any time to lock early. - Track spending in activity tab. Step2Scroll never sends your data anywhere. Step counts come from Apple HealthKit and stay on your device. App blocking runs through Apple's own Screen Time API (Family Controls) - we never see which apps you choose or how you use them. Erase your device-stored data in settings. The app uses iCloud Key-Value Store to sync your daily unlock-time balance across your own devices. This data is stored in your personal iCloud account and is never accessed by us. Stop doomscrolling. Start walking. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

It's 11pm again, and you couldn't name a single thing you saw. You opened one app for a minute, and the evening went with it. Willpower lost that argument, the way it usually does at that hour. EarnLock hands the decision to your daily activity goal instead, and Apple Health keeps the count. MOVE FIRST. SCROLL LATER. Pick the apps that keep eating your evenings. Set a daily goal in steps, or in active minutes or active calories with Premium. Until you reach it, those apps stay locked. Reach it, and they open by themselves until midnight. Half a goal still counts. Halfway there, some of your locked apps open for about an hour, once a day. WHERE THE KEY LIVES Other blockers leave the key in your pocket: a password you set yourself, or a delay you can wait out. EarnLock keeps it on the far side of your daily goal. You can always get in. You have to move first. A WEEK OF WATCHING FIRST For your first week, EarnLock blocks nothing. It watches, so you see your real pattern before any lock begins.
