MMoveKeyClosed beta

The key is to move.

Walk to unlock the apps you choose.

MoveKey is a walking-based app-use limiter for Android closed beta testing.

Choose distracting apps, set a daily step goal, then earn app access by walking. Use Progressive Unlock for earned time during the day, or Full Lock to wait until you reach the goal.

Android beta is being prepared. Beta access details will be shared with invited testers.

Android permissions

Clear about what MoveKey needs.

Closed beta testers and reviewers should know why each Android permission appears during setup.

Step tracking

MoveKey uses phone step tracking first. Health Connect can be added for supported smartwatch or health-app steps.

Accessibility

Accessibility is used for app blocking: it helps MoveKey notice when a selected app opens and show the pause screen. It is not used to read messages, passwords, or private app content.

Usage Access and notifications

Android Usage Access and notifications support selected-app detection, reminders, and clear status while app blocking is active.

Why MoveKey

A better reason to get moving.

MoveKey gives you a small nudge before you open selected apps. You choose the apps, the goal, and how access works.

  • You choose the apps.
  • You choose the goal.
  • You choose when app blocking is on.
  • Movement comes first.

Built for real life

Need a little flexibility?

MoveKey gives you a manual pause for banking and optional help to keep app blocking running.

Banking Safe Mode

Need your banking app?

Pause app blocking when you need to. Turn it back on when you're done.

Banking Safe Mode is a manual pause, so you'll need to turn app blocking back on afterwards.
