restabilityGet the App

Rest like you
meant to.

A rest timer that locks the apps you pick while you lift and opens them the moment you rest. When rest is up, they lock again.

Chalked hands gripping a loaded barbell.

Locked while you lift. Open while you rest.

Your phone becomes the reward for resting, not the thing that stretches it.

Apps locked

The apps you picked won't open. Anything you didn't pick works as normal.

Built for the gym floor.

Set it up once, then just train.

Your rest, on the Lock Screen

The countdown sits on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, so you rarely need to open the app mid-workout.

You choose what locks

Only the apps you pick, never all of them. Change them whenever you like, or switch it off in Settings.

Saved workouts

Save your lifts, sets and rest ahead of time. At the gym, pick one and press play.

See if you rest on time

Every rest is timed against its plan, so you can see how often you really kept to it.

Questions

Which apps does it lock?

Only the ones you pick. You choose them once with Apple's Screen Time picker, and you can change them any time. There's no option to lock every app.

What happens when my rest is up?

The apps you picked lock again, right on time. Start your next set and the timer carries on.

Can I still take calls or change my music?

Yes. Anything you didn't pick keeps working through your sets: calls, messages, music, whatever you leave off the list.

Can restability see which apps I use?

No. Apple's Screen Time keeps your picks on your phone and only hands restability a private token for each one, so we can't see which apps they are or how you use them.

Do I need an account?

No. There's no sign-up. Your workouts and history sync through your own iCloud, so they follow you to a new iPhone or your iPad.

What do I need to run it?

An iPhone or iPad on iOS 17 or later.

What's free, and what's in restability+?

Free locks your apps during every set and saves one workout, with one rest time for every exercise. restability+ saves as many workouts as you want, opens every ready-made workout, sets a rest per exercise, picks which exercises lock apps, starts your next set for you, lets you change rest and add exercises in a Quick Start, and charts your rest back a full year.

How do I cancel?

Subscriptions are handled by Apple. Open the Settings app, tap your name, then Subscriptions, and cancel at least 24 hours before your trial or billing period ends.

Lift now. Scroll later.

Pick your apps, press play, and keep your rest honest.
