Unlock rule
Move first
A focused landing page for searchers who want a specific app blocked without losing useful access.
Why this works
X is easy to open before you have consciously decided what you want to do next.
A movement unlock adds a healthy pause without requiring you to delete the app.
The rule can be strict during focus windows and lighter during free time.
Setup steps

- 2Choose a step, walk, or run goal that takes a few minutes.
- 3Apply the block to the times when X usually derails your day.
- 4Use emergency unlocks sparingly and review them later.
- 5Increase the goal only when the habit is working.
Good moments to use it
- Before opening X in bed or during low-energy breaks.
- During study blocks, deep work, chores, workouts, or family time.
- When you want to keep the app available but stop automatic checking.
