PlugBrain vs Waistline
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
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 ;)
Waistline
Waistline is a libre calorie counter and weight tracker that allows the user to keep a diary of the food they eat and variations in their weight. All data is kept on the user's device and can be exported or imported easily when needed. The app includes a barcode scanner that connects to the Open Food Facts database to pull in product information.
