Screen Time Limit: MonkeyLock Apple

Screen Time Limit: MonkeyLock

App Blocker, Focus & Detox

Features & Capabilities

Your phone owes you nothing. Earn it back. Do 20 push-ups. Beat mini game challenges. Touch grass, take an outdoor photo. Then — and only then — your apps unlock.

MonkeyLock locks the apps you can't stop opening (Instagram, TikTok, X, Reddit, YouTube — you pick them) and hands the keys to your body. Run out of earned screen time and the apps go dark until you move. No willpower required. The wall does the work.

This isn't another timer you'll swipe past in a week. Most blockers just nag you, add a 3-second "breath," or let you tap "ignore." MonkeyLock makes screen time something you spend, not something you're handed. Every minute behind the lock is a minute you actually earned.

HOW IT WORKS

  1. Choose the apps to lock — the ones that eat your day.
  2. Your balance starts at zero. Locked apps stay shut.
  3. Move your body to bank minutes. Push-ups become Instagram. Steps become TikTok.
  4. Spend, the apps go dark again, you go earn more. The loop quietly rewires the habit.

WAYS TO EARN SCREEN TIME • Camera-tracked workouts — push-ups, sit-ups, squats, lunges, jump rope, counted live by your front camera with on-device pose detection. No reps faked, no cap. • Walking — Apple Health steps turn into minutes automatically. • Brain games — Hangman, Sudoku, Word Drip, Memory Match (up to 15 min/day). • Touch grass — snap a verified outdoor photo for bonus time.

Physical activity is uncapped. The more you move, the more you unlock.

QUIT THE HABIT, NOT JUST THE SCROLL Track day-streaks for the things you're actually trying to quit — nicotine, alcohol, caffeine, junk food, gambling, doomscrolling. Earn XP, level up, hold streaks, clear daily quests and weekly challenges. It feels like a game because beating your phone should.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your camera and photos are processed entirely on-device and never uploaded — ever. Apple Health is read-only. We can't see your reps, your room, or your feed. MonkeyLock is built for self-control, not surveillance: no parents, no managers, no MDM. Just you vs. the algorithm.
