Run Your Time: Screen Time Apple

Run Your Time: Screen Time

Focus, App Blocker & Fitness

Overview

Features & Capabilities

Earn screen time by working out — 1 minute of exercise unlocks 1 minute on your blocked apps. Free trial, then subscription. Try your first session!

Can't put your phone down? Run Your Time makes screen time something you earn. The app blocks your most distracting apps until you exercise. Work out for ten minutes, and you unlock ten minutes of screen time — one minute of activity for every minute on your phone. Run Your Time is a subscription app and begins with a free trial. If it isn't the right fit, you can cancel anytime in Settings. HOW IT WORKS

Choose the apps you want blocked, such as social media or games. Complete a workout using any fitness app that syncs with Apple Health — Strava, Nike Run Club, Peloton, and Apple Watch workouts all count. Open Run Your Time, and your exercise minutes convert into screen time. When your time is up, your apps lock again automatically.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

Block unlimited apps, enforced by real iOS Screen Time Earn screen time from any workout and any fitness app Bank your earned time throughout the week and redeem it anytime through midnight Saturday Set a custom exchange rate, such as one minute of exercise for two minutes of screen time Pause a session and save the remaining time for later Track a live countdown in the Dynamic Island and on your Lock Screen

STAY HONEST Ask a friend or partner to set the passcode. Without it, you can't unblock your apps or change the rules — real accountability, not a setting you can quietly switch off. Your health data never leaves your device. The app reads only your workout duration to credit your screen time.

User Reviews

Users praise Run Your Time for its innovative approach to reducing screen time and boosting exercise, and note it helps with habits when it works. However, widespread bugs, a harsh paywall without a true free version, unreliable blocking, syncing problems with health data, and limited support hinder its reliability and value.
Pros
  • Reduces screen time and doomscrolling, helping users use apps less.
  • Motivates exercise and improves workout consistency (more workouts per week).
  • Innovative concept with strong potential to improve health habits.
  • When it functions, acts as an effective timer/structure for workouts and app use.
Cons
  • Frequent bugs and instability (crashes, pausing/unpausing failures, miscounted or reset minutes, random unlocking).
  • Paywall/free version confusion (no true free option; users expect a free version but encounter premium-only access).
  • Blocking reliability issues (apps don’t get blocked as configured or stop blocking).
  • Health data syncing issues (Apple Health, Garmin/Strava) leading to minutes not counting or not syncing correctly.
  • Poor or hard-to-reach customer support.
Recent reviews
I used this earlier in the year and loved it, but now that I’ve re-downloaded it and I’m trying to use it, it only allows me to try out the free trial. Not sure where you’re supposed to get the free version
