Could you build this?

Partial Real-time on-device computer vision pose estimation combined with OS-level application blocking (Apple Screen Time API / Android Accessibility Services) requires deep native mobile systems expertise.

What it would actually take: The app needs native iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin) codebases integrating MediaPipe or CoreML/MLKit for on-device pose landmark detection and rep counting. The critical challenge is the tight OS integration: Apple's FamilyControls/ScreenTime APIs have strict entitlement requirements and tricky authorization flows, while Android requires foreground services and overlay permissions. Mobile systems and computer vision expertise are necessary to prevent battery drain, background kills, and bypasses.
