Alki describes an Android app that keeps selected apps locked until its phone camera counts a workout.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-13 issue.

For: Android users trying to curb app scrolling
Worth noticing: Its example turns 12 daily Instagram opens, five free passes and 10 push-ups per later opening into 70 reps.

Field notes

The page lets visitors adjust a sample rule using daily opens, free passes and reps per later opening, then shows the resulting daily and monthly totals. It also describes a 12-week plan based on a user's goal, level and available time, with body-weight, dumbbell or gym options. The site says rest days do not lock apps and describes a way to ease the lock for illness or injury.
