@ErnestoSOFTWARE shipped a step-based app blocker about a month ago, approved first try but it was tricky
happy to chat about what worked if helpful
English
It’s day 2 of building my 12th app
In public
It blocks your phone until you walk.
1,000 steps = 1 hour of screen time
We usually 1 shot our apps but
We got rejected by Apple 9 times
Most likely because our app uses
Apple health + screen api
Which Apple is sensitive about
But this has given us sometime to improve the product
We recently added mascots +
a widget to the app using Rork
And it was super easy,
Rork max generated the character + one shotted the widget.
Meanwhile we are warming up some
IG accounts to go crazy.
Will update you guys once it’s live.

We are bootstrapping our app studio to $1M/mo It’s based around screen time apps. We have prayer lock with 13k reviews ranking top #100 on the AppStore Now we are building step lock our 2nd app and the first goal is to scale it. to $10k/mo, In public It combines health kit + screen time api To block your apps until you get your steps in. We used Rork plans feature, and it literally gave us the whole setup for the app, Then it built the app for us and one shorted the api integrations In a 2 days we had the app submitted to the AppStore The app is currently in review. Apple has rejected it 7 times For the dumbest reasons. But it’s looking like this time it will get approved. Will be posting updates on this
English
launching your first app can feel
like an absolute nightmare
prayer lock got rejected close to 10
times before we finally got it live
now our new app is getting hit with rejections too
this is completely normal and part of the process
it feels dreadful the first time around
especially cause apple takes their sweet time with it
and even a little mistake can delay you by days
but just keep pushing, once you scale your
app you'll look back at this and laugh
English
@ErnestoSOFTWARE @maubaron you’re not wrong. that’s exactly why I built brb
might be fun to compare notes 👀
apps.apple.com/us/app/brb-wal…
English
$300k/mo for an app that rewards
you for walking 💀
People literally have 0 accountability
That’s why these apps print.
And also why me and @maubaron
Are building an app called steplock.
Which blocks your phone until you walk.
Would you use it?

@joe_petro_ brick is awesome. it didn’t work for me bc i’d tap it when the urge hit (or i needed my phone for real stuff).
i built berightbackapp.com instead: it blocks distracting apps i pick until i hit my daily step goal, so i still have a phone, i just can’t doomscroll
English
Also first day using Brick. Locked myself out of all social apps before I left for the office and kept the Brick device at home.
I genuinely felt like I was on adderall at work. Disappointed that it’s gotten to this, but excited to continue using it.
Girlfriend is already over me yelling “I’m bricked!”

I intentionally broke my iPhone to stop doomscrolling, and the resulting peace was the smartest tech upgrade I never bought. Sometimes the best AI is a little analog intervention.

The Brick is a physical and digital device that aims to make your phone less distracting. We tested it for two weeks to see if it curbed our doomscrolling. nbcnews.com/select/shoppin…

@simonecanciello very similar concept to my app, you pay with movement instead of $
BeRightBackApp.com - block TikTok, IG, or any distracting apps until you hit a daily step goal
English
a $1M app idea:
pay cents every time you want to open distracting apps.

@digiminimalist @heyeaslo I think this will be the best product for me. I’m literally getting so distracted by Instagram 😭

Testing a physical product that blocks distracting apps.

@ChamberofFit totally agree. but consistency is hard. friction helps.
I made an app that won’t let me scroll until I hit my step goal - berightbackapp.com

Literally everyone wants to look great naked.
But nobody wants to:
- Fix their sleep habits
- Take 10K+ steps daily
- Lift weights 3-5x/week
- Track their calorie intake
- Eat 1g protein/lb bodyweight daily
And do it all CONSISTENTLY until they achieve the body they want.

It’s the second month of 2026 and here’s how to actually make your life better:
– go to the gym
– stop doomscrolling
– track the way you spend
– check out @maplefinance yields
– cook a meal that didn’t come in a wrapper
– say no to people and distractions that drain you
Easy.
