Show HN: A 24h grid where one tap on a distracting app voids the whole hour
The app 'oh my hours' helps users track their screen time by visually representing hours spent on distraction apps. Each hour is marked as either owned or lost based on user engagement with selected apps. It offers various views for daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly tracking without collecting user data.
- ▪The app allows users to select which apps distract them and tracks their usage.
- ▪A single second spent on a distraction app results in losing that hour.
- ▪Users can export their data to CSV and the app does not collect any personal information.
