Block Apps. Move More. Unlock.

Features & Capabilities

Your phone shouldn't be a willpower test.

MATTRS blocks the apps that waste your time and only unlocks them when you've earned it — with real steps, real exercise, or real mindful minutes tracked by Apple Health.

No timers you can ignore. No limits you can tap through. A lock that only opens when you've done the work.

HOW IT WORKS

Pick the apps and websites that distract you most. Set a fitness goal — steps walked, exercise minutes, or mindful minutes. MATTRS blocks your selections until you hit the target. When you do, everything unlocks automatically.

That's it. Earn your screen time.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

• Block any combination of apps and websites behind a single fitness goal • Choose from steps, exercise minutes, or mindful minutes as your unlock metric • Set goals that repeat daily, on specific days, or run once • Use Standard mode (editable anytime) or Locked In mode (no way out until you finish) • See real-time progress on the block screen when you try to open a shielded app • Get notified when your lock day starts, when you're close, and when you've unlocked

DESIGNED TO STICK

MATTRS uses Apple's Screen Time framework to enforce blocks — not a workaround, not a suggestion. When an app is blocked, it's blocked. The only path through is progress.

Dark mode. Clean design. Built for people who want less friction, not more.

FREE VS PREMIUM

Free gives you one goal to prove the concept.

Premium ($4.99/month or $49.99/year) removes the cap — create separate goals for scrolling, streaming, and everything else you want to earn back.

PRIVACY FIRST

MATTRS reads your health data to track progress. It never sends your health values, blocked app names, or website selections off your device. Anonymous product analytics (which you can turn off) help improve the app — nothing else leaves your phone.

Built by someone who needed this app to exist.

User Reviews

The concept behind this app is something I can totally relate too.... Work hard, get a reward. It's something we tought our kids- finish your homework then you can play on your iPad! I often need motivation to exercise so this App will definitely act as a motivator. So happy to incorporate MATTRS into my daily life!

Most focus apps just set timers or limits you can ignore. MATTRS is different. I set a step goal, blocked my biggest distractions, and now my phone works with me instead of against me. It’s simple, but it works. You build momentum, and unlocking your apps actually feels earned instead of automatic. The Apple Health integration is seamless, and I like that it uses real activity, not arbitrary timers. The progress feedback when you try to open something is also a great touch, it keeps you focused on finishing what you started. Design is clean, setup is fast, and it doesn’t try to do too much. It just does one thing really well. If you’re serious about cutting distractions and staying consistent, this is one of the few apps that actually changes behavior instead of just tracking it.
