Stroll before you Scroll

Tired of reaching for your phone first thing in the morning? Stroll before you Scroll helps you build a simple, powerful routine: get moving before you start scrolling.

Pick the apps that distract you most — social media, news, games — and they stay locked until you hit your daily step goal. No workarounds, no snooze button. Just you and a walk.

▸ ONE-TIME PURCHASE — NO SUBSCRIPTION

Unlike other app blockers that charge you every month, Stroll before you Scroll is yours forever with a single purchase. No recurring fees, no trials that expire, no hidden costs.

▸ BEAUTIFULLY SIMPLE

One screen. One goal. A scenic illustration that comes alive as you progress — from a misty morning path to a vibrant landscape at 100%. Choose from four handcrafted background themes: Country Path, Forest Walk, Mountain Trail, or Beach Stroll.

▸ FLEXIBLE DAILY GOALS

Set a step target that fits your lifestyle — from a gentle 1,000 to an ambitious 30,000. Need different goals for different days? Set custom targets for each day of the week.

▸ CHOOSE WHEN BLOCKING STARTS

Early bird who wants to check messages before heading out? Set a custom lock start time — your apps stay free until then, while your steps already count from midnight.

▸ STRICT MODE

For those who mean business: Strict Mode prevents you from changing settings or removing apps from the blocked list until your goal is reached. Real accountability, no cheating.

▸ LIVE ACTIVITY & WIDGETS

Track your progress without opening the app. See your steps on the Lock Screen, in the Dynamic Island, and through Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets — always up to date.

▸ APPLE WATCH COMPANION

Glance at your wrist to see how close you are to unlocking your apps. Your Watch shows your progress ring, step count, and remaining steps.

▸ 100% PRIVATE

Everything happens on your device. No account required, no data collected, no servers involved. Your step data and app choices never leave your phone.

▸ SMART NOTIFICATIONS

Receive a notification the moment you reach your goal — so you know your apps are unlocked even when you are not looking at your phone.

▸ HAPTIC MILESTONES

Feel a subtle vibration at 25%, 50%, and 75% — little rewards that keep you going without checking the screen.

Stroll before you Scroll works with Apple's Screen Time technology to block the apps you choose. It counts your steps using the built-in motion sensor — no extra hardware needed, no GPS tracking, no battery drain.

The idea is simple: a short walk makes everything better. Your focus improves, your mood lifts, and by the time you open your favorite apps, you have already done something good for yourself.

Start today. Your apps will be waiting — after your walk.
