I added social competition to an anti-social-media app. It worked (so far).

Hey PH! Piyush here, solo builder of Stroll (steps to screen time: you walk, you earn minutes for the apps you scroll too much).

A few weeks ago we shipped the thing I was most scared to build: a global step leaderboard.

The tension was obvious. Stroll exists to help people scroll less, and social features are the #1 reason apps are hard to put down. So we designed it around one rule: rank the walking, never the scrolling.

  • 100% opt-in. You never appear until you choose to join

  • Leave anytime, and your leaderboard data is deleted instantly

  • No push about your rank, ever. Exactly one notification: if you made yesterday's global top 3

What's one feature that would make you actually stick with a screen-time app?

I've tried a lot of screen-time tools over the years.

Most of them worked for a day or two before I either ignored the reminders or disabled the restrictions altogether.

While building Stroll, I kept coming back to one question:

What would make someone actually stick with healthier phone habits for months, not just a week?

Stroll - Steps to screen time - Turn your steps into screen time. Scroll less. Stroll more.

Most screen-time apps tell you what happened after you've already spent hours scrolling. Stroll changes the moment before. Turn your steps into earned screen time, choose the apps you want to manage, and build a healthier relationship with your phone—without relying on guilt or hard blocks. Scroll less. Stroll more.
