OUTSIDE FIRST is a screen time app that turns your morning phone habit into a healthy outdoor routine. Before you scroll, step outside for 5 minutes of sunlight and movement, and your apps unlock automatically — a digital detox that actually fits your morning routine.
Pick the apps and morning time windows you want to manage — social media, news, video, whatever steals your first hour. OUTSIDE FIRST becomes your app blocker until you earn your screen time back.
OUTSIDE FIRST blocks the apps you chose. The only way back in is a real 5-minute outdoor session — sunlight on your face, feet on the ground, no shortcuts.
Step outside, walk, stretch, get some sunlight. The outdoor timer runs in the background on your iPhone or Apple Watch, quietly tracking your movement and steps so your 5-minute break is real, not gamed.
Finish your 5 minutes and your apps come back on their own. No willpower, no guilt, no decision fatigue — just a mindful break between you and your feed.
Every morning you start outside instead of in a feed makes the next one easier. Track your streak, build a healthier habit, and watch your mornings — and your focus — change.
