Just installed it. It generates a link on your homescreen from the app you need space from (ie twitter, in my case). Link looks like the twitter app icon.
When I tap it it loads the browser on a page saying "breath with me" for a second or two, and then loads the twitter app.
I can imagine 1) needing the breath and that working out, 2) ditching the process of loading twitter if i'm asked to breath
both would be good outcomes
- tdaltonc 9y agoGlad you like it! There's a third benefit too. Putting a lag between the action and the reward rewires the brains wanting system. That itch at the back of your brain or the impulse to reach for your phone at the briefest hint of boredom doesn't have to be there. Using space will kill that wanting impulse.
- akkartik 9y agoVery interesting idea. I wonder how hard it would be to write a plugin to do this transparently on my browser.
