24 alternatives to EyesOff

I built EyesOff after getting fed up with people glancing at my screen in coffee shops. I trained a, custom and small, neural network to detect when people look at your screen. Whenever more faces than your allowed threshold are looking at your screen an alert will show. The model being ran locally ensures all data stays on your device - no cloud processing. I would love feedback on the application and any features you think I should implement!

    Hello, I'm Kushagra and I am the indie developer behind LookAway (I've posted about it earlier but it has received quite a lot of updates since the last time so I am posting it again). LookAway is a native break reminder for macOS that doesn't interrupt. I built it because I work from home and I spend a lot of time in front of my screens. It's very easy for me to get lost in the flow and I can end up sitting for hours. Due to this, I started facing issues like eye strain and back pain by the end of the day. The solution to this was simply taking enough breaks throughout the day. But…

    I wanted Apple Vision Pros, but I don’t have $3,500 in my back pocket. So I made Apple Vision Pros at home. This was just a fun little project I made. Currently, the website doesn't work on screens less than 1200x728 (Sorry mobile users!) It also might struggle on lower end devices. For best results, have a webcam pointing right at you. I tested my website with a MacBook camera. Any comments, questions, or suggestions are greatly appreciated! blog: https://blog.andykhau.com/blog/eyesite check it out: https://eyesite.andykhau.com/ github:…

    Hey everyone, If you're anything like me, you spend a good chunk of your day (and night) on your computer. I often find that when I'm zoned in, my posture gets worse and worse and my face ends up being really close to the screen. And over a course of a workday, when I finally unplug, my eyes have a hard time focusing on things that are far away. This has become a big enough problem for me that I decided to create an app to help me keep my face far enough from the screen. Now, I could've gone with a simple notification with a timer built into it but, as with all reminder notification, they…

    In 2019, I experienced eye soreness and back pain for a while because I was constantly working long hours in front of my 16 inch Macbook without any rest. I decided to do something to change that. I’m not a fan of Apple Watch or smartbands. So the first thing I did was looking for some reminder software to remind me to take a break in the App Store, but none of them were smart enough for my needs. I wish the software could automatically tell if I was working, rather than requiring me to manually set an alarm. At the same time, when I go to the bathroom or drink coffee, it can automatically…
