New: sunrise arc progress + amber theme. Walk your daily goal, earn screen time minutes, spend them whenever you want. No guilt. Just steps.
StepUnlock turns your step count into screen time currency.
Walk your daily step goal → earn minutes → spend them on any app you choose. Stop endlessly scrolling before you've even moved. Start your day walking. Then enjoy your phone guilt-free, because you earned it.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Set your daily step goal (default: 8,000 steps)
2. Walk: StepUnlock reads your steps from Apple Health in real time
3. Every step earns a slice of screen time
4. Tap "Spend Your Steps" to unlock your apps for exactly as long as you choose
5. Apps relock automatically when your time runs out
FEATURES
- Real-time step arc: a sunrise-style progress tracker that fills as you walk. Watch your balance build step by step.
- Spend exactly what you earned: pick 1 minute or your full balance. A slider puts you in control, not a hard block.
- Lock any app: uses Apple Screen Time to lock Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, games, or anything else you choose. Pick from your installed apps directly.
- Focus Sessions: lock everything at once and work distraction-free. Set a duration and nothing gets through.
- Weekly Challenges: a fresh step target every week. Beat your previous best and climb your personal leaderboard.
- Streaks & Achievements: day streaks, personal records, and 9 achievements to unlock as your habit deepens.
- Smart Goal Suggestions: StepUnlock watches your recent averages and nudges your goal up when you're consistently beating it.
- Home Screen Widgets: small, medium, and large widgets show your live balance without opening the app.
- Lock Screen Widgets: glance at your step balance right from your lock screen.
- Live Activity: your progress arc and earned minutes stay visible on your lock screen and Dynamic Island as you walk.
- Emergency Override zero balance but something urgent? Take 5 minutes now, paid back from tomorrow's budget.
- Schedule Lock automatically relock apps on a schedule (e.g. work hours, bedtime).
WHY IT WORKS
Hard blocks create anxiety and workarounds. StepUnlock uses earning instead of restricting you always have a path to access, it just requires a walk first. That tiny friction is enough to break the reflex grab and replace it with a habit you're proud of.
PRIVACY
StepUnlock reads step data from Apple Health. It never sells, shares, or uploads your health or usage data. Everything stays on your device.
Screen Time integration uses Apple's official Screen Time API (Family Controls). StepUnlock cannot see which apps you use or how long it can only lock and unlock the ones you choose.
PRO
