Give your apps a reason to wait.

1. Install ExcerLock from the App Store and follow the app’s setup.
2. Grant Screen Time access when prompted, then choose the apps you want to lock in Apple’s picker.
3. Open Conditions → Add condition. Choose an activity and an unlock condition.
4. Set the goal and schedule. Grant the permissions the app explains for that activity, then save.
5. Try opening one of your selected apps while the condition is active and unmet. Check that the Screen Time shield appears.

Start with one clear rule

Walk & Scroll keeps the rule simple: move to open your selected apps, stop to let them close after the stop grace. A daily step goal or gym arrival is useful when you want a milestone instead.
