What it does
Focus Shield hides Reels, Shorts, and TikTok feeds while keeping everything else—DMs, posts, and search—working normally. Need a stronger barrier? Block entire apps too. Want to watch later? Pause Focus Shield anytime. It doesn't lock you out—it simply makes mindless scrolling harder. Everything runs 100% on-device with no account, no analytics, no tracking, and no root required.
FocusShield quietly hides short-form feeds — Reels, Shorts, TikTok — and adds a Focus Mode that locks distracting apps. 100% on-device, private, and free. Android only.
FocusShield quietly hides the feeds built to keep you scrolling — Reels, Shorts, TikTok — and adds a Focus Mode that locks distracting apps until your timer runs out. No streaks, no dashboards, no guilt. FocusShield stays out of your way and simply removes what pulls you in. Shorts, Reels and stories simply aren't there. The moment a feed opens, FocusShield closes it — before it can hook you. No accounts, no uploads, no tracking. There are no servers to send anything to — everything happens locally, on your phone. Set it up in under a minute, then forget it. Grant Accessibility access a single time and FocusShield handles the rest. Start a focus session and the apps you choose won't open at…from focusshield.samarthsinha.com

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations.
