People are LOVING Stryde
"Perfect way to encourage exercise and prevent mindless scrolling. I’m surprised this app has no reviews yet because It is incredibly well thought out." - KeelyGilmour
"The only other app besides this I could find with step tracking was jomo. Glad I found this as I wanted an app more geared towards fitness than app blocking"
"The step monitor is great but I love the timer too - it allows me to stay off my apps for x amount of time during the day. Great stuff! I’d recommend it." - carolina_blue
One of our users said:
"I turn into a gremlin and have no self control with blocking social media and so this has been an absolute lifesaver"

I’m very happy to have found this app while lurking on Reddit so I could block myself from lurking on Reddit. I’ve never written a review on the App Store before and likely never will again, this app has helped me in so many ways since I got it. Scrolling times are down, hobby times are up, steps are up. Which was exactly the goal. Worked great for me and the locking is a great feature. One major bug since the update has stopped the app from working properly for me, however. I’m unable to give it the ability to read steps. I pressed the button in settings since it said it didn’t have the ability anymore and it took me to the system screen to enable it, I flip the little switch and press done and… nothing. Still unauthorized. Other than this past day, the app has been perfect for me though.

Great for Decreasing Screen Time
jfish90
I found this app while on Reddit and thought I’d give it a shot. It’s been great helping me not only be more cognizant of how much time I spend on my phone, but also helping me to keep active. My overall screen time is down! I’ve been finding other things to do than sit on my phone and doom scroll. I also like how much you can customize block usage. My only complaint is that I use a Garmin watch to keep track of my steps and the steps don’t seem to translate over to the app real well. It probably has more to do with the Apple Health app than Stryde and how it connects with Garmin. Regardless, I’ll keep using Stryde!
Developer Response
Hello jfish90. Glad you're liking the app! Please double check that your Garmin app is syncing to Apple Health. There may also sometimes be a slight delay up to 15 minutes for Stryde to receive a notification from Apple Health that new steps are available for unblock time. Opening the Stryde app should alleviate any delays. Receiving information about new steps in the background is unfortunately a limitation of the Apple frameworks & we can not do anything to increase the interval at which steps are fetched. If you encounter any other issues or have any other feedback, please do not hesitate to reach out to support@getstrydeapp.com
Fantastic service!

Got the lifetime subscription for free. Never usually leave reviews. My only suggestions are adding a widget to see screen time from the homescreen, fixing the glitch where it closes the app if the option to hide apps is on but then when refreshing in the app there’s time left and my app that closed lost progress/refreshed feed, and adding a notification when there’s a couple minutes left to save the game or post. Minor things, ultimately was able to gradually cut my screen time by 80-90 percent on average. Keep it up, recommended to a few people already!

First off, I was recommended this app by a neighbor to help manage screen time/social media excess use + increase activity during the day. She’s a physician and often works from home which reduces her daily step count & allows for increased “bored downtime”. We both trialed it and bought pro very quickly. The changes & increased stats have been phenomenal. When I had an issue with pro being recognized after I had to reset my phone, I emailed support and John got to work on it immediately. Within a day, he had made changes and resubmitted the app to Apple for updating. He went as far to let me know today it was approved and ready for download. Not only is this app so beneficial to kick these bad habits, but it is carefully managed & consistently updated for the best experience. I have recommended it and will continue to do so! Thanks John for this app!
