LookAway 2▲281Hello, 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…

EyesOff▲184I 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!

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…
