Neither is your goal.

Sunstride is an app blocker with a twist: it locks your most distracting apps — TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, whatever owns your mornings — until you hit your daily step goal. Open a locked app and you'll see one thing: your live step count and how far you have left. Walk, and everything unlocks.

No willpower required. The walk is the key.

WALK TO UNLOCK
• Pick the apps that eat your time
• Set your daily step goal — you choose, from 3,000 to 15,000
• Locked apps show a live step counter until you earn your scroll
• Emergency unlock exists (we're strict, not cruel)

EVERY STEP PAYS
• Earn Strides for goals, streaks, and clean lock days
• Collect Patches — real achievements for real feats: goal before 10am, a full No-Scroll Sunday, a 30-day streak
• Level up from Stroller to Main Character

STREAKS THAT FORGIVE
• 2 rest days a month, automatically — life happens, your streak survives
• Blew it? Walk 1.5× your goal to restore it. Earned, not bought.

SHARE THE PROOF
• Turn your day into a clean, beautiful share card — your steps, your streak, your Patch

HOW APP LOCK WORKS (Accessibility Service)
Sunstride uses Android's Accessibility Service to run App Lock. It detects the moment you open an app you've chosen to lock — like TikTok, Instagram or YouTube — so it can cover that app with your live step count until you reach your daily step goal. Sunstride only reads which app is currently in the foreground; it never reads, records, collects or shares the content on your screen, and no data leaves your device. App Lock is optional and you can turn it off anytime in Settings.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Steps are counted by your phone's built-in sensor — they never leave your device
• Sunstride's Accessibility Service only sees which app is in front — never your screen content
• No account. No ads. No selling your data.

Part step counter, part app blocker, part screen-time reset — Sunstride turns "one more scroll" at 1am into a reason to move. Made for hot-girl-walkers, dopamine detoxers, walking-pad devotees, and anyone getting their life together.

Walk first. Earn your scroll.
