clearspace - Pushups to earn screen time

@kellypoly Lol we all have one (it's me I'm the friend). Please do! And let her know she can add you as an accountability partner for some added support :)

@anteloper Haha, both my friend and I will become healthier thanks to Clearspace, lol 💪

@kellypoly that’s the plan! Clearspace is a great way to keep both the scrolling and fitness in check. Definitely let us know how it goes for you and your friend—accountability partners make it even more fun!

@maryna_dobrovolska1 😅😅 totally get it—clearspace is a great way to sneak in some exercise without even thinking about it. let us know how it goes once you give it a try!

@maryna_dobrovolska1 Give it a shot Maryna! I think you will like it, you can start with super gentle difficulty and ramp up :)

@aztec_elric thanks so much! glad you’re excited about it—earning screen time with pushups is definitely a fun way to stay active. let us know how it goes when you start unlocking your phone with those workouts!

@aztec_elric So glad you’re excited about it! 😄 Combining fitness with screen time control definitely adds a fun twist. Get ready for those pushups—you’ll be unlocking your phone and getting stronger at the same time! Thanks for the enthusiasm, and enjoy the challenge!

@web3_antivirus This actually came from a lunchtime conversation! We were talking about how in general, tech removes friction from processes and we started speculating about areas where this friction removal is more harm than help. Royce floated that having to physically move to access entertainment was probably a net good thing - and removing all friction from that process might have made us unhappier. We started wondering if our lives would be better or worse if we had to do 5 pushups to open our non-utility apps. Once that happened - we couldn't stop ourselves from hacking on an early version of pushup detection, and right from the jump it was pretty obvious that our lives got better

@web3_antivirus it's a great question!

@teddyni Thanks Teddy! Absolutely likewise - really appreciate the kind words

@teddyni much appreciated teddy!

@allen_xu1130 the exercises are tracked using movement detection software that we built. right now you can only track pushups and squats and then also use the phone's step tracker as well.

@allen_xu1130 We use the front facing camera! It is quite intuitive and fun - you can see the screen registering the exercises as you do them. Give it a try! Totally free

@allen_xu1130 thanks for the kind words! It’s awesome to hear that you're excited about the concept. As Royce and Oliver mentioned, our movement detection is really intuitive and adds a fun element to the experience. While pushups, squats, and steps are available now, we’re always thinking about expanding workout options in the future. We’d love to hear your feedback if you give it a go!

@rayyan_jawed1 thank you!

@rayyan_jawed1 Thanks a lot. You too

@rayyan_jawed1 thanks so much! Really appreciate the support. Let us know what you think if you give Clearspace a try!
