Building an app where 1 pushup = 1 minute of scrolling allowed [1]. We've fiiinally started to grow and reached a whooping $30k in the last month!!

I was literally thinking about quitting in August. My motivation is now at an all-time high - some users have done >8k pushups :)

As always, the key has been the marketing (10M views on Instagram). But we have to improve the product to make people love it even more. So the roadmap is more full than ever.

Neat idea, but how does that work? Can an app limit other apps? I didn't know it was possible.


On iOS you can do that using DeviceActivity framework, iirc.
