HonorFit Blocker

Earn your screen time. 💪

Instagram, TikTok, YouTube — locked until you earn them back with pushups.

No AI/Camera Tracking — honor system No data collection — everything on-device

Why I built this

Hey y’all! I needed a way to cap my own phone use, so I downloaded one of those “do pushups to unlock your phone” apps. Loved the idea! What I didn’t love was propping my phone up so it could watch me do the pushups. Super annoying, and kinda embarrassing when people see you doing pushups at a gas station lol.

So I built HonorFit. Same idea, just on the honor system. You do your reps, log them, and that buys you screen time. No camera watching you.

It’s definitely not for everyone. If you know you’d cheat, the camera ones are probably better for you! But I’ve been using it for a few months and it’s honestly changed how much I scroll.

How it works

  1. Pick the apps to block
  2. Do pushups, situps, etc — every rep earns screen time
  3. When time runs out → apps lock → repeat step 2

The honor system

No Clunky Camera Tracking

No camera to prop up, no motion tracking, no AI rep counting. Just you, the floor, and your word.

Private by design

Everything stays on your device. No accounts, no analytics, no data collection. HonorFit can't read your screen — it only knows which app you're in.

Features

Your exercises

Pushups, situps, pull ups, and squats built in, plus up to 3 of your own for free, in reps or timed minutes (yoga, pilates, a run). Each one has its own screen-time rate, and you set it.

Live balance & streaks

Watch your earned time count down in real time, and keep your daily streak alive. Hit a 3, 7 or 30 day streak or a big rep total (100, 1,000, 10,000…) and you get an image card to brag with, and you can share your stats from the Stats page anytime.

Stats

Total reps, workouts, best streak, a per-exercise breakdown, and weekly charts. Month and year charts come with Pro.

15 languages

English, Español, Português, Deutsch, Français, Italiano, Nederlands, Polski, Türkçe, Bahasa Indonesia, Tiếng Việt, ไทย, 日本語, 한국어 and 繁體中文. HonorFit follows your phone’s language, or pick one in Settings.

Pro

No cap on banked time (free banks up to 2 hours), plus unlimited custom exercises, saved routines, pause mode, owe mode, and month and year charts.

Common questions

How does HonorFit know I actually did the pushups?

It doesn’t. If you cheat, the only person you’re lying to is the one doing zero pushups.

Does HonorFit work on both iPhone and Android?

Yes. On iPhone, Apple’s Screen Time does the blocking; on Android, HonorFit does.

Why is it called HonorFit?

Honor + fit: it runs on the honor system, and it gets you fit. Some people write it as “Honor Fit” — same app. HonorFit is an indie app and isn’t affiliated with HONOR phones, watches or the HONOR Health app.

Does HonorFit collect my data?

No. No accounts, no analytics — everything stays on your phone.

What languages is HonorFit available in?

English, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, German, French, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Turkish, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Thai, Japanese, Korean and Traditional Chinese. It uses your phone’s language automatically, and you can switch any time in Settings › Language.

What does HonorFit cost?

Free, including custom exercises (up to 3), timed workouts and rep values. Pro lifts the 2-hour cap on banked time and adds the extras — $3.00 a month, or $19.99 once.
