BetterCounter vs PlugBrain
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
BetterCounter
- Track good and bad habits (eg: exercising, smoking, drinking...) - Track when's the last time you did something (eg: water your plants, change your bedsheets, poop...) - Count your lives in MtG Features: - Records the date and time of each individual counter increase. - Graphs your data over time and calculates statistics. - Lets you export your data (eg: to analyze it with your choice of tools). - Your data is never sent to any server (except for Google's app backup, if enabled). - Simple as hell and will stay this way.
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 ;)
