MeeRoo vs PlugBrain
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
MeeRoo
MeeRoo is an Android app to manage reservations for meeting rooms.Main purpose of this app is to display the availability of an meeting room. It is expected to have one tablet or phone next to the meeting room to see if it is available, see the current and upcoming meetings and reserve the room now or in the future. There is an overview for all meeting rooms, too. This makes it easy to find available rooms or a current meeting very quickly.How it worksThe app reads calendar and event data stored on the device. To get this to work the calendars must be configured in the android calendar on the device. On the first start of the app you have to choose the calendar mode (for synchronization). This is necessary, because Google Calendar marks meeting rooms as resources. With CalDav synchronised calendars are storing every calendar as normal calendars, no difference between a personal calendar and a meeting room (resource).Supported calendar synchronizationsGoogle CalendarCalDav Calendar
PlugBrain
PlugBrain is an app that encourages regular breaks from distracting apps by blocking access at scheduled intervals. To regain access, you’ll need to solve a math challenge that adjusts in difficulty: the more frequently you use the apps, the harder the challenges become, but the longer you stay away, the easier they get. **Features** - No ads - No internet required - Blocks distracting apps - Unblock apps by solving math challenges - Difficulty increases with frequent use, decreases with focus **How to use** - Grant all required permissions - Select distracting apps - Choose your focus interval - Stay focused ;)
