A few days ago i made a post on various platforms sharing my software ScreenGuard which received mixed reviews every where , since I AM using it for myself i decided to take in the reviews and am working towards adding necessary features and primarily polishing up things that were left behind and can have some 1st time setup hiccups.

The new features-

* Settings menu added

General tab(control notifications and sounds)

- add notification sounds(custom options too)

-toggle sounds and notifications for various causes

- dark mode(asked bby a few people so added the option)

Tracker Daemon tab

-stop background daemon

- toggle autostart of daemon on boot

- warning when daemon is off Pomodoro timer tab

- Turn on pomodoro in focus mode settings (fixes the unbaked settings of focus mode in v0.1.0 -set break between pomodoros

- no of pomodoro loops

* Daily limits can now be set instead of the fixed 8hr daily limit bug with v0.1.0

* Several changes to Daemon, including some minute layout changes to optimise resources while adding the newer features which are Stated above

Note: this is a beta release and will NOT be pushed to the APT ,COPR AND ARCH repositories for casual users, this is meant for testers and people eager to help me out find the bugs and tiny issues here and there AND YOU CAN HAVE A LOOK INTO THE CODE IN THE BETA BRANCH OF THE REPOSITORY, it hasn't been pushed to main branch to keep it clear until bugs are fixed.

Release page: (https://github.com/adityakrishnan005-a11y/ScreenGuard/releases/tag/v0.1.1-beta.4)

What does it actually do?

[–] Aditya_K9999@lemmy.today 3 points 1 week ago

ScreenGuard is a digital wellbeing software which incorporates the features like monitoring per application usage and total system usage for per day and stores it in a database and also allows you to limit application usage per day or a certain set of application while in focus mode. I started this in early -mid june to make a normal screen time monitoring application to stop myself from over using social media and to know when I need a break. However ever since I have been adding to it , and aim to make this a alternative to digital wellbeing which is present in android.
