what does StretchLock include?
Lower average screen time
Each locked app adds a short pause before it opens, so your daily digital detox happens automatically instead of requiring constant willpower.
Less doomscrolling and fewer mindless app opens
The stretch step gives you a moment to notice you're reaching for the app out of habit — and choose — before the feed pulls you in.
Sharper focus for work and study
Fewer mid-task detours into the feed means the mental clarity people chase with a detox sticks around longer.
Better posture and less neck, shoulder, and eye strain
The same stretches that create distance from your apps also loosen the tension built up from screen time.
Small movement streaks that feel like wins
Every stretch is a small win, so your detox feels like progress you can see, not deprivation you have to white-knuckle.
