WayOut - Walk to Earn Screen Time – Earn app access by walking with system-level blocking

Summary: WayOut restricts app usage on iOS by requiring users to earn screen time through walking. It blocks apps at the system level using Apple's ScreenTime API, preventing bypass. Users accumulate Neon currency by walking and spend it to unlock apps for limited sessions.

What it does

WayOut enforces app locks at the iOS system level and awards Neon currency based on steps taken. Users spend this currency to unlock apps like Instagram or TikTok for timed periods before they lock again.

Who it's for

It targets users seeking to reduce screen time by linking app access to physical activity, especially those who struggle to enforce self-imposed limits.

Why it matters

It solves the problem of easily bypassed digital wellbeing tools by implementing uncheatable, movement-based app access controls that operate at the system level.
