Unlock Instagram after an Apple Watch workout

Thirty minutes of workout opens the apps. Zero minutes keeps them shut.

What you need

An iPhone and an Apple Watch, or any app that writes workouts to Apple Health. Dwar counts today’s workout minutes as Health records them.

Set it up

  1. In Dwar, pick the habit and its hours. For Instagram in the evening, choose Doom scrolling, then After work.
  2. Pick the apps in iOS’s own picker.
  3. Choose Workout as the goal and set the minutes. Thirty is a solid session; ten is a walk round the block.

Finish the workout on your Watch, tap Check again on the lock screen, and the apps open. With Dwar closed it checks by itself about every sixteen minutes and, if you’ve allowed notices, sends one when the goal is met.

Exercise minutes or workout minutes?

Workout minutes count only what you record as a workout. Exercise minutes are the green ring: every minute at a brisk pace, recorded or not. Pick exercise if you’d rather a long walk counted.

Does a strength session count?

If your Watch records it as a workout, yes. Dwar reads the minutes, not the kind.
