Problems or bugs
- The chart is still rather ugly and not nice enough, might consider to remove top labels especially.
- The app can be force closed by closing the app through back button, but the count down will continue regardless.
- The apps in white list is not sorted alphabetically and have no method to search a specific app.
- Can't set your own ringtone.
- Takes a bit time to load for apps on starting screen.
- Checks for the current app in foreground every 5s, not that efficient.
- There'll be a problem for the bar chart if the user does not use the app consecutively, in which it will disrupt the real date.
Future plan
- Overcome the problems especially the force close app.
- Makes the app smoother by reducing the loading time.
- Add in more artistic means.
- Enable customisable ringtone.
- Adding strict and relaxed mode.
