Step It Up
Walk & Unlock
About
Step It Up helps you earn your screen time by walking. Choose the apps you want to limit, set a daily step goal, and those apps get locked until you hit your target.
Stay active. Stay focused. Every step counts.
FAQ
How does app locking work?
Step It Up uses Apple's Screen Time API to lock apps you choose. Once you reach the step goal for an app, it unlocks automatically. All apps re-lock at midnight.
Where do step counts come from?
Steps are read from Apple Health. Any device that writes steps to Health (iPhone, Apple Watch, etc.) will count toward your goals.
Can I set different goals per app?
Yes. Each managed app can have its own step goal. Set easier goals for apps you need sooner and harder goals for your biggest distractions.
What happens if I uninstall the app?
If you remove Step It Up, any active shields on your apps will be cleared by the system. Your step data remains in Apple Health.

Privacy
Step It Up does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. Step counts are read locally from Apple Health and never leave your device. App selections are stored on-device only using Apple's Screen Time framework.
