Doomscrolling is a
physical problem.
Unlock it with steps.
Mozy blocks your favorite distracting apps until you earn screen time through physical walking. No steps? No scrolling. Turn physical activity into your daily digital currency.
A positive loop for digital wellness.
Mozy is a unique app blocker and step counter that rewards movement instead of punishing phone use. Every step you take earns screen time minutes that can be used on your favorite apps. Once your earned time runs out, Mozy blocks access until you get moving again.
Whether you're trying to reduce screen time, beat phone addiction, improve productivity, build healthy habits, or simply stay more active, Mozy helps you create a healthier relationship with technology. No walking? No scrolling. It is simple, effective, and surprisingly motivating.
