An exercise app blocker puts a physical cost between you and the app you open without thinking. FitToll’s cost is push-ups or squats, counted by your camera before the blocked app will open.
How the gate works
You pick the apps you want blocked. When you open one, FitToll’s gate covers it.
The camera watches you through an on-device pose model — Apple Vision on iOS, Google ML Kit on Android. It reads the angles at your joints and counts a rep when you complete the full range of movement. When you reach your rep target, the blocked app opens.
There is no button that skips this.
Why it counts joint angles instead of motion
A counter that reads the accelerometer counts anything that shakes. That makes it trivially cheatable, and it also makes it wrong — it cannot tell a push-up from a phone bouncing in a pocket.
FitToll reads the geometry of your body instead. Push-ups are counted from your elbow angle, with a hip-angle check at the bottom that separates a push-up from a sag. Squats calibrate to your body and your distance from the camera at the start of every session, then count from knee angle.
Two consequences follow. Shaking the phone, waving at the camera, or tapping the screen produces no reps, because none of those change a joint angle. And half-reps do not count — the rep lands only after you have been all the way down and all the way back up.
Three strictness levels
Beginner, Intermediate and Pro change how much range the counter demands before it accepts a rep. All three are available on the free tier. Strictness is about what counts as a rep, not about how many reps you owe — that number is yours to set.
The clock does not pause
FitToll’s unlock window runs on real time. Earn fifteen minutes and you get fifteen minutes from the moment the app unlocks; close the app and the clock keeps running.
That is deliberate. A window that paused whenever you looked away could stay open indefinitely for someone who only dips in.
When you genuinely cannot do reps
There are three emergency bypasses a day. They exist because sometimes you need an app now and a floor is not available.
They are not free. Each bypass doubles the reps on a later unlock, and the doubling clears after one clean unlock at the higher price. Try a fourth and your blocking setup resets, so you have to deliberately build it again.
The design goal is that a bypass is always available and never comfortable.
What runs on your phone and what does not
Camera frames are processed on the device and discarded. No image, no video, and no pose data is recorded or uploaded. Counting works with the phone in airplane mode, which is the simplest way to confirm nothing is leaving it.
Exercise sessions are stored on the device and deleted after 90 days on both the free and paid tiers.
What it costs
FitToll is free to download. The free tier blocks one app, includes push-ups and squats at all three strictness levels, and shows the last 7 days of your exercise history.
Premium is $5.99/month or $29.99/year. It lifts the one-app limit, allows longer unlock durations, and keeps the full 90 days of stored history. Prices are shown in USD; local pricing applies at checkout in your store’s currency.
What is an exercise app blocker?
An app blocker that puts a physical task between you and a distracting app. Instead of tapping past a reminder, you do reps. FitToll counts them with your camera, and the app unlocks when the work is done.
Does it work on Android as well as iPhone?
Yes, both. FitToll runs on iOS 16.0 or later and Android 8.0 or later.
Which exercises can it count?
Push-ups and squats. Both are included free, at every difficulty level.
Do I have to pay to use it?
No. The free tier blocks one app and includes both exercises at all three strictness levels. Premium ($5.99/month or $29.99/year) lifts the one-app limit and allows longer unlock durations.
Does it need an internet connection?
No. Pose detection runs on your phone, so counting works in airplane mode.
What stops me from just deleting the app?
Nothing — you own your phone. FitToll is built to beat the reflex to open an app, not to beat a determined decision to stop using it.
Getting it
FitToll is on the App Store for iOS 16.0 or later, and on Google Play for Android 8.0 or later.
If you want the detail on how counting works, there are separate write-ups on the AI rep counter, the push-up counter and the squat counter.
