Sorry scroll, I've got goals.

Every time you open TikTok, you pay a 30-second step toward one goal. Then it unlocks. The more you scroll, the sooner you finish.

Blockers feel like punishment. This feels like a deal.

4h 12m

You already have the time.

The average person we built this for scrolls four hours a day. We don't take that away. We tax it, 30 seconds at a time.

1 goal

One goal. One finish date.

A language, your body and mind, or a quick memory game. Not a streak: a real finish line, and a date that moves every time you pay a step.

Day 12

A receipt you'll actually post.

Every day you get a receipt of what your scrolling paid for. It's made for Stories, not for shame.

How it works

  1. 01

    You open TikTok.

    Nothing changes about your phone. Same apps, same icons. You just tap it like always.

  2. 02

    The shield asks for one step.

    Learn two new words in English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese or Korean, explained in the language you speak. Or one of 20 moves for 30 seconds, from squats and lunges to a neck stretch or slow breathing, shown step by step before the timer starts. Or a quick memory game: remember which tiles lit up, repeat a few digits or spot what's missing.

  3. 03

    It unlocks. You scroll.

    Fifteen minutes by default, or whatever you set. When it's up, the shield comes back and so does the next step.

  4. 04

    Your finish date moves closer.

    Every step is progress toward the one thing you keep putting off. Scroll more, finish sooner. That's the deal.

TikTok
Sorry,

Pay one step toward Japanese first. It takes 30 seconds.

What's inside

Thirty seconds that actually teach you something.

500

Words that matter.

The 500 most-used words in each language, every one with an example sentence and, where it helps, a tip on the mistake everyone makes.

7

Speak one, learn another.

Meanings and tips come in the language you speak: English, हिन्दी, Español, Français, Deutsch, 日本語 or 한국어. Speak French, learn Japanese. Speak Hindi, learn English.

2 words

Two words, then tell them apart.

Each step teaches two new words and then quizzes you on both. Words people mix up, like borrow and lend, arrive together so you learn the difference.

🐢

Hear every word.

Every word and example sentence has its own audio in a native accent. It starts slow for beginners; switch to normal or fast right next to the word.

20 moves

Explained before you start.

Squats, lunges, planks, glute bridges, wall pushups, neck and wrist stretches, slow breathing and more. Plenty work at a desk or in bed. Ten seconds to read how and get in position, then the timer runs.

↺

Everything you've learned, kept.

Your words, grouped by the day you learned them, with audio and examples to revise. Every move logged with its time. Every memory workout counted.

3 games

A quick memory game.

Remember which tiles lit up, repeat a few digits, or spot the object that disappeared. One short game per step, picked for you.

1–5

Harder when you're ready.

Each memory game has its own level from 1 to 5. Three right first tries in a row and it steps up. Two misses in a row and it steps back.

⏸

Switch goals, keep your progress.

Change goal any time. The old one pauses where you left it, and switching back picks it up again.

The math

Do the math on your scrolling.

Slide to how many hours you scrolled last week. This is the same projection the app shows you before it asks for a cent.

2h70h

At that rate you'd open your blocked apps about 17 times a day.

You'd know 500 words of a new language by
18 Dec
or 500 active minutes by21 Dec

Assumes you pay a step on 7 of 10 opens and recall most words. Scroll more, finish sooner.

Every day, every week

A receipt for your attention.

The app prints what your scrolling paid for: every move, every word, every unlock. One tap shares it to your Story. Your screen time and app opens stay in a card only you see.

Yes.

What if I need the app right now?
