Runlock: Run For Screen Time

$30 billion will be spent this year to glue you to your phone even further. Take control back over your life.

The Algorithm is Winning. Take Your Brain Back.

You've tried willpower. You've tried deleting apps. You've tried those blockers that let you bypass with one tap. Nothing sticks. Because the problem isn't you. it's billion-dollar engagement algorithms designed to keep you scrolling.

Runlock is different. It's not a blocker. It's a currency exchange.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Choose the apps you want to limit (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, etc.)
2. They're locked by default
3. Want your apps back? Move.
4. Do push-ups, squats, or go for a run
5. Your physical effort converts to screen time

That's it. No willpower required. Just a simple transaction: sweat for screen time.

REAL EXERCISE TRACKING

• Push-ups & Squats: Computer vision tracks your reps using your front camera. No faking it. The AI counts every proper rep. • Running: GPS tracks your distance and pace. Watch your route appear on the map as you earn coins. • Coins Economy: Earn coins through exercise. Spend coins to unlock screen time. Simple.

WHY IT ACTUALLY WORKS

Traditional blockers fail because they rely on willpower, which is finite. They also create a void: you stop a habit without replacing it. This leads to the binge-purge cycle: block apps, eventually bypass, feel guilty, repeat.

Runlock replaces the dopamine hit of scrolling with the endorphin hit of exercise. It's habit replacement, backed by neuroscience.
