Stroll — Steps to screen time

Stroll app logo

Earn screen time by walking.

Turn your daily steps into time for Instagram, YouTube and the apps you choose. You set how many steps earn a minute.

Scroll less. Stroll more.

Free on Android and iPhone. Set your own earn rate.

How it works

Walk first. Scroll later.

Step 01

Choose your apps

Pick the apps you want to spend less time on. Apps you don't select stay outside Stroll's limits.

Step 02

Walk to earn time

Your steps earn minutes for your chosen apps. You decide how many steps earn one minute.

Step 03

Use your earned minutes

Spend your minutes on the apps you chose. When they run out, Stroll pauses access. Walk to earn more.

Why Stroll

Make your next scroll a little more intentional.

Give your steps a purpose

The walking you already do can earn time for the apps you enjoy.

Choose a rate that fits your day

Set how many steps earn a minute. Start with something manageable and adjust it to suit you.

Limit the apps, not your whole phone

Choose which apps use earned time. Leave everything else outside Stroll's limits.

Interrupt the automatic scroll

When your minutes run out, Stroll adds a pause before you keep scrolling.

Permissions

Know what you're allowing.

Stroll needs permissions to read steps and manage access to your selected apps. Here's what each one is for.

How Stroll uses your data

Reading your steps

Android: Health Connect, with phone step counting (Activity Recognition) if Health Connect has no step data yet. iPhone: Apple Health.

Managing your chosen apps

Android: Usage Access, used to calculate time spent in the apps you select. iPhone: Screen Time, used to manage the apps or categories you select and their unlock sessions.

Showing the pause (Android)

Accessibility is used on Android to show the pause screen for a selected app when earned time runs out. Stroll does not use it to read typed text, passwords, messages or payment details.
