Workout app blocker

Exercise to unlock apps and earn screen time.

AfterReps blocks selected distracting apps until you complete a short camera-verified workout. Do push-ups, squats, or jumping jacks, earn timed access, then let those apps relock automatically when the earned time runs out.

10 reps Default push-up target from the app settings
3+ Core unlock options: push-ups, squats, jumping jacks

“The goal is not to shame screen time. The goal is to make opening high-drain apps feel earned, deliberate, and easier to stop.”

Camera-verified unlocks

Motion detection, timed budgets, relock logic, and clean setup work together as one clear loop.

Designed for self-control

Built for people searching for a real app blocker, not another reminder.

AfterReps is for people who want exercise to unlock apps: a direct blocker, a clear rep challenge, earned minutes, and an automatic relock after the access window ends.

01

Intentional lock screen

Selected apps open into a clear lock state that explains the budget and routes people into the workout gate without confusion.

02

Movement earns minutes

Push-ups, squats, and jumping jacks convert movement into timed access. The unlock economy is simple, visible, and easy to understand.

03

Relock happens automatically

When time is gone, the gate comes back. The system is built to protect the rule instead of hoping the user remembers to close the app.

Core Flow

A full loop from urge to reps to relock.

The product is designed as one continuous journey: discover the urge, interrupt the app open, offer a workout, award minutes, and relock cleanly when the timer ends.

  • Guided onboarding for account creation, blocker setup, and workout preferences
  • Workout-aware budgets that explain how minutes are earned and spent
  • Clear blocked-app messaging that feels deliberate and understandable at the moment it matters most
  • Automatic relock logic that restores the blocker when earned time expires
What changes
Less mindless opening More deliberate screen time Short bursts of movement Clear unlock budgets Automatic relock

The behavior shift is simple: high-friction apps stop feeling like free defaults and start feeling like a choice with a cost.
