Notification Settings


Rather than allowing people to set how often breaks are (as that kind of defeats the purpose) we thought we’d have settings as to how busy you are. If you are not busy, the breaks would be more frequent to keep you health and well being at a maximum but when you are really busy, they would be limited a bit more. Such as a shorter lunch break.

According to research your are only supposed to spend 6 hours a day at a computer. While this is probably the best thing you can do for your health it is not a realistic approach for students. We understand that student do need to spend long hour working hard but the aim of our app is to make these long hours healthier. It's not about reducing work hour but about maximising the productivity during these hours and creating less stressful and happier work habits

Sound Settings
We really wanted to have sound but this is not practical if you’re using the app at uni which it is intended for.
So we though of a couple of settings
Either you could change the volume and vibrate, or you could tell it where you are, ie home or uni. Home would have noise, use would vibrate, and maybe a silent mode also.
