Hey Product Hunt, I'm Devesh, the solo maker of RunFirst.
I built it because my phone was winning and my body was losing. Every app blocker I tried had the same flaw: the unlock button was one tap away. So RunFirst makes the unlock cost something good for you: a walk.
How it works:
• Pick the apps that steal your time. Apple's Screen Time picker keeps them private, so even I never see which ones.
• Every morning they lock.
• Walk or run, tracked with GPS in RunFirst or as an Apple Watch workout. Hit today's goal and every km earns 15 minutes.
• Unused minutes expire at midnight, so there's no saving up for a binge. Typed-in Health entries don't count.
It's built for people starting from zero. Day 1 is a 10 minute walk. Follow a daily walk habit, or a 90 day plan to your first 5K.
A few things I'm proud of:
• Fight mode: race anyone in the world, or a friend with a code, for one hour. The winner's km count double.
• A 15 second Run Reel of every walk, made on your iPhone, ready for Stories.
• Easy, Serious and Beast strictness, for the days you know you'll try to talk yourself out of it.
Pricing, upfront: 7 days free, then $29.99 a year or $4.99 a week. No ads, and your data is never sold.
I'd love honest feedback. What would make you keep a lock like this on past week one?
