Description :
Mobile devices today are a source of both stress and distraction. We are bombarded with an unending stream of email notifications, Whatsapp messages, social media news feeds, and phone calls over the course of the day. The constant ringing and buzzing of our smartphones is a huge impediment to doing work, or even simply focusing on what’s happening around us. We’re tackling this problem with Glance App.
Glance App is a mobile app designed to help you better understand your relationship with your mobile devices. It tracks the apps you use and how much time you spend on each of them. It also tracks how often your device’s screen is turned on. It then produces reports of this data allowing you to visualize your activity on your mobile device. You can see how much time you spent using an app over the course of a day or what times of the day you are most distracted. Glance App will also allow you to set personal goals to help you change your usage of your mobile device. Finally, you can also disable notifications for a period of time in order to eliminate the distractions of your mobile device.
We empower our users with the understanding of how they use their mobile devices, enabling them to take control back from the endless stream of notifications and turn their devices from a source of stress to the productivity and communication devices they were always intended to be. Mobile devices are just the beginning. Our world is littered with programmable devices that beep and buzz at us, urgently calling for our attention. We envision a world where once again the user is in control and no longer at the mercy of these devices.
