Move More, Scroll Less. Block distracting apps until you hit your daily movement goals, then earn access back for the rest of the day.
Make Hay blocks your most distracting apps until you earn access through movement.
Set daily goals for steps, active energy, and exercise minutes, choose the apps and categories that pull you off track, and let Make Hay turn progress into access. The app works with Apple Health to measure your activity and Screen Time to enforce the boundaries you choose. When you complete today’s goals, your selected apps unlock for the rest of the day. At the start of a new day, your goals reset and blocking begins again.
Features:
• Block the apps and categories that distract you most
• Create fitness goals that repeat on the days you choose
• Track steps, active energy, and exercise minutes in one place
• See exactly how close you are to earning access
• Unlock selected apps automatically when today’s goals are complete
• Use Mindful Peek for short emergency access when you need it
• Manage blocked apps, permissions, privacy, and support from Settings
- Added App Buckets, so you can group apps into vaults with separate unlock goals.
- Added more flexible unlock rules for bucket goals.
- Links to new make hay website with support and privacy and about me pages
- Bug fixes and performance improvements.
