what does StretchLock include?
Lower average screen time
Every locked app adds a short pause before it opens, so the extra minutes you'd lose to autopilot scrolling add up to real time back by the end of the week.
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
Interrupting the automatic app-open habit means fewer mid-task detours into the feed, so focus blocks stay intact longer.
Better posture and less neck, shoulder, and eye strain
The same stretches that unlock your apps also loosen the tension that builds up from hours of screen time.
Small movement streaks that feel like wins
Every stretch is a small win added to a streak, so cutting screen time feels like progress, not deprivation.

StretchLock is a gentle pause, not a hard block. You can finish the short stretch to unlock — most people find the pause is enough to close the app instead.
Stretches run 20 to 30 seconds — neck, shoulder, wrist, eye, or back. Long enough to break the habit, short enough to stay out of your way.
Yes. Everyone starts on Free with a limited number of stretch unlocks a day. Upgrade later only if it changes how you use your phone.
