Need for Steps is the dopamine detox app that blocks your addictive apps until you reach your daily step goal. Walk more, scroll less.

HOW IT WORKS

Set a step goal, pick which apps to block, and start walking. Your selected apps stay locked until you hit your target — turning every step into a reward and breaking the cycle of phone addiction.

KEY FEATURES

• App Blocker with Step Goals – Lock distracting apps until you reach your daily step count • Screen Time Control – Reduce screen time naturally through physical activity • HealthKit Step Counter – Tracks steps automatically from Apple Health • Customizable Step Goals – Set daily targets from 1,000 to 20,000 steps • Real-Time Progress Ring – Watch your progress update as you walk • Digital Detox Made Easy – Build self discipline without willpower alone

PERFECT FOR

• Reducing screen time and social media addiction • Building a daily walking habit through app limits • Breaking the dopamine loop of endless scrolling • Anyone wanting a phone addiction solution that actually works • People who need motivation to walk more every day

WHY NEED FOR STEPS?

REQUIREMENTS

• iPhone or iPad with HealthKit support • Screen Time permissions for app blocking • Apple Health for step tracking

Stop scrolling. Start stepping.
