Toll: Habit Photos Unlock Apps

Toll locks the apps you scroll too much until you prove your habit with the camera: a workout, your desk, a book, a walk.

Most screen time limits have an ignore button. Toll doesn't: prove today's habit with the camera and your apps unlock for the rest of the day. Schedules, daily limits and focus sessions you set still apply.

7 days free, then $29.99 a year. Or $5.99 a month, or $79.99 once.

You pick the apps and the habit. Miss a day, and the next day starts with those apps locked until you prove it.

YOUR RULES - You pick the apps. Everything else stays open: calls, Messages, your work apps. An Always open list keeps any app open, even inside a category you locked. - You pick the habits and the days. Two rest days a month keep your streak. - Need a few minutes? Up to two short breaks a day, 5 to 15 minutes each. - Delete Toll, or turn off its Screen Time access, and every lock lifts. The only exception is Strict mode, if you turn it on.

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT - Live camera only. No photos from your library, no box to tick. - Checked on your iPhone and never stored. Nothing is uploaded, and there is no account. - Proving today's habit lifts its lock for the rest of the day. No coins to earn, no minutes counting down.

WHY I BUILT IT I kept skipping the gym and struggled to stick to eating well, so I built Toll for myself first. Charbel, the developer

HOW IT WORKS - Toll locks the apps you pick with Apple's Screen Time; they stay on your Home Screen. - Pick your habits: the gym, study, reading, a run, a walk with the dog, meals, yoga, or your own. - Prove it with the live camera. By default the gym takes two photos, a check-in and a check-out at least 30 minutes apart; meals take one photo per meal. - Or skip the photo: Toll counts your time at a place you pick, like your gym, or your steps from Apple Health. - Want your apps locked every morning until that day's proof, not only after a missed day? That's one setting. - Add schedules and daily limits: work hours from 9 to 5, nights from 10 PM to 7 AM, or 45 minutes a day before the apps lock until midnight. They open by themselves. - Focus sessions from 15 minutes to 3 hours.

WHAT KEEPS YOU AT IT - Day streaks, a monthly history and badges earned from what you did. - A score out of 100: the share of your habits kept over the last 7 days.

STRICT WHEN YOU WANT IT Both are off until you turn them on. - PIN lock: a PIN before anything that loosens the rules, like removing apps or ending a session early. Never to prove a habit. A forgotten PIN lifts after 24 hours. - Strict mode: while your apps are locked, iOS blocks deleting Toll and your apps and keeps the date and time automatic. It ends the moment they unlock.

PRIVATE - Photos are checked on your iPhone and never stored or uploaded. - No account. Your habits live on your iPhone and in your own iCloud. - No ads. Toll counts only anonymous usage, never who you are.

TOLL PRO Toll needs Toll Pro. It includes everything above. - Yearly: $29.99 a year, after 7 days free. - Monthly: $5.99 a month. - Lifetime: $79.99 once, no subscription.
