About DoomStroll: Walk to Unlock
DoomStroll turns your screen time into something you earn. Pick the apps that eat your day. Set how much time you get. When that time runs out, those apps lock and the way back in is a walk. HOW IT WORKS - Choose which apps to block. Social, video, games, anything. - Set your daily allowance. Ten minutes or two hours, your call. - When it runs out, the apps you picked are shielded. - Go for a walk. Hit your goal and they unlock. BUILT TO ACTUALLY WORK Walks are measured with your iPhone's motion sensors, so the timer only runs while you are genuinely moving. Standing still pauses it. Your walk keeps counting with the phone in your pocket and the screen off. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No accounts. No servers. No analytics. DoomStroll cannot see which apps you block, where you walk, or how you use your phone, because none of it leaves your device. Delete the app and the data is gone. WHY WALKING Reaching for your phone is a reflex. DoomStroll puts something physical between the reflex and the reward, so scrolling becomes a choice instead of a habit.
