Unlock goal recommender (2026)
Start from the steps you already take and how often the feed wins before you walk. Get a round daily unlock goal for brb — hittable first, ambitious later.
What is your average daily step count?
Apple Health → Browse → Activity → Steps.
Example
Example: if your Apple Health average is 5,000 steps a day, a reliable unlock goal is about 4,500 steps, a balanced goal is about 5,500 steps, and a stretch goal is about 6,250 steps.
If you open the feed most mornings before walking, start reliable. Raise the goal only after a clean streak. brb blocks the apps you choose until that number is real.
Questions
How should I pick a step goal for brb?
Use a number you have hit before on a normal day. A goal you miss every day teaches you to look for a way around the lock. This recommender suggests round targets from your current average and habit.
Where do I find my average daily steps?
Open the Apple Health app → Browse → Activity → Steps. Check the average for the last week or month.
Is 10,000 steps required?
No. brb lets you set the goal. Ten thousand is a common default elsewhere, not a rule in brb. A lower goal you hit is more useful than a high goal you ignore.
Is this the same as the old daily step goal calculator?
Same math, clearer flow. It asks about your morning habit before suggesting reliable, balanced, or stretch targets.
