Touch Grass Makes Walking the Password

Field notes

Touch Grass uses Android’s physical activity sensors to count steps locally, then places selected apps behind a shield until the configured target is reached. The page gives 500 steps for a 15-minute access period as an example and describes a 15-to-30-minute earned window before the shield returns. It also specifies that GPS is not requested, while calls, emergency dialers, SMS, and Maps remain available; leaderboard participation is optional and uses manually entered city information.
