what does StretchLock include?
Less doomscrolling and fewer mindless app opens
The stretch step gives you a moment to notice you're reaching for your phone out of habit — and choose family time instead.
Lower average screen time
Each locked app adds a short pause before it opens, so you get more present hours back in the evenings and weekends.
Sharper focus for work and study
Fewer mid-task phone detours means more focus during work hours and more attention left over for your family after.
Better posture and less neck, shoulder, and eye strain
The same stretches that cut your screen time also loosen the tension that builds up from hours on a phone.
Small movement streaks that feel like wins
A quick stretch is an easy win you can feel good about — and a habit worth modeling for your kids.
