Workout
Block Instagram Until You Work Out
PlanKept is meant for workout-gated rules where distracting apps stay blocked until the workout clears through Apple Health-backed evidence or Proof Review.
- No Instagram until the gym session is done.
- TikTok unlocks after the run.
- YouTube time comes back after the home workout clears.
Make the reward arrive after the workout
The problem with a workout promise is rarely the plan itself. It is the easy escape before the plan starts. A workout-gated block keeps the high-friction part small: start, finish, then get access back.
What counts as proof
The proof should fit the goal. A run or workout can use allowed Apple Health evidence when available. A gym session can also use Proof Review, with a supporting image when that helps. PlanKept is designed to keep that review close to the plan rather than turning it into a separate tracking hobby.
Rules that tend to work
Use concrete, checkable rules. Avoid vague promises like 'be healthier today' when the app needs to decide whether access should return.
- Finish a 30-minute workout.
- Complete the run before social apps unlock.
- Do the planned home workout before entertainment apps reopen.
FAQ
Direct answers
Is this only for fitness people?
No. Workout-gated blocking is just one use case. The same achievement-gated pattern can support studying, chores, sleep routines, or recurring habits.
Can the app know every kind of workout automatically?
No. Some goals need proof review, and some can use device signals only when you allow them. The public copy should stay honest about that.
