About Squat Lock: Screen Time Limit
Your phone won't unlock until you move. Squat Lock blocks the apps you waste the most time on — and only unlocks them after you complete real squats. Place your phone on your thigh and squat. The app detects your movement using motion sensors. No camera. No video. Just you and gravity. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose which apps to block (social media, games, etc.) 2. When you open a blocked app, a lock screen appears 3. Place your phone on your thigh and do your squats 4. Your apps unlock for 5–60 minutes It's simple friction that actually works. REAL SQUAT DETECTION Squat Lock uses your phone's accelerometer to detect genuine squat motion. It tracks your descent, depth, and ascent in real time with a visual fill animation — so you know exactly where you are in each rep. Anti-cheat measures prevent shaking or fake movements from counting. GHOST MODE Set "vulnerable hours" (like late-night scrolling) where the squat requirement increases 1.5x to 2.5x. Make it harder to mindlessly scroll when your willpower is lowest. STREAKS & ACHIEVEMENTS Build consistency with a daily streak system. Hit 7-day milestones and the app suggests leveling up your squat count. Earn 33 achievements across 4 categories — from your first squat to a 365-day streak. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS • Daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly stats • Squats completed, calories burned, unlock count • Syncs with Apple Health • Past 7 days visualized on your home screen PRIVACY FIRST All motion detection happens on your device. No camera access. No cloud uploads. No data leaves your phone. BUILT ON APPLE SCREEN TIME Uses Apple's official FamilyControls and Screen Time API — the same technology behind Screen Time parental controls. No workarounds, no jailbreak.
