iPhone
Sweat first, scroll second. Earn screen time with real workouts, now just walk or run to your step goal to unlock Instagram, TikTok & more.
Stop doomscrolling. Earn your screen time.
Lock distracting apps until you finish real workouts, push-ups, squats, planks, counted on camera.
Works for you and your whole family. 7-day free trial.
EarnIt locks the apps you waste time on and unlocks them when you complete real workouts, tracked and verified by AI using your phone's camera. No equipment. No gym. No excuses.
You pick the apps. You pick the workout. Your phone watches your form, counts every rep, and only unlocks your apps when the work is done.
WHAT MAKES EARNIT DIFFERENT
Most screen time apps just block you. EarnIt makes you earn it. Your favorite apps become rewards for real physical activity.
AI-POWERED REP COUNTING
Point your phone at yourself and start moving. EarnIt uses on-device pose detection to recognize exercises in real-time:
Counts push-ups, squats, sit-ups, crunches, lunges, jumping jacks, high knees, and mountain climbers
Tracks timed exercises like planks and holds
Gives real-time form feedback so you train safely
Verifies every rep so you can't cheat the system
No wearable required. No special equipment. Just your iPhone camera.
LOCK ANY APP ON YOUR PHONE
Choose which apps to lock from a curated list of 18+ popular apps, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat, Reddit, Netflix, X, Discord, Roblox, and more, or add any app installed on your phone.
Set how long each app stays unlocked once you've earned it:
30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, or rest of day
Per-rep mode: every rep you do earns one minute of screen time
Custom duration: dial it in to the minute
TWO LOCK MODES
Mindful Mode: a brief pause before opening the app, with a snooze option. Awareness without hard restrictions.
Standard Mode: the app stays fully locked until you complete your workout. No shortcuts.
READY-MADE WORKOUTS
Five templates so you never have to think:
Quick 5: a fast 5-minute routine for busy days
Morning Grind: a full warm-up to start your day
Cardio Burn: high-intensity when you need to sweat
Stretch Flow: recovery and yoga for rest days
Full Body: complete strength training head to toe
Or build your own with any combination of exercises, sets, reps, and rest times.

Walk or run to unlock your apps — and your apps now lock themselves back automatically.
• NEW Steps workout: set a goal (100 to 5,000+ steps) and walk or run it off to earn your screen time. Steps are counted automatically.
• Track time, calories, and distance live while you move, with motivating cheers along the way (toggle in Settings).
• When your unlocked time runs out, your apps re-lock on their own — no need to reopen the app.
