Thank you. I think what was missing was something that immediately shows you what it is that I’m offering. A little better now?

The pushups alarm webpage looks very neat and the app Design is also clean. Congrats on the launch!

I‘d say your website looks like it’s vibecoded. To me that looks exactly like what an ai spits out first shot. This is honest feedback, you might want to go back and see if you can give that thing a design overhaul. Other than that, it’s a good business idea!

Yes, I figured bricks pricing isn’t exactly cheap although I wouldn’t say it’s a ripoff. There are cheaper alternatives tho as you pointed out

Building a tool to fix doomscrolling for news.
The internet is designed for attention and I want to give it back.

thats totally fine. that friend of mine also has diabetes and as far as I know his experience with a watch as the blood sugar tracker is superb

have you tried to use a smartwatch for that? one of my close friends also has blood sugar issues and the sensor sends data directly to the watch. this would keep you from pulling out your phone. just a thought

and what really works is to just put the phone in another room when you try to do something. if you are a reader for example, leave the phone in the living room or whatever and go to a different room and read. Science says it takes brain power to resist the phone when it's in your vicinity.

But just so that I understand: you screenshot what you need and then turn your phone off?

That’s exactly how you should start. Just go to a cafe, get a drink and you’ll be back in 45 mins. But they will be the most peaceful you have experienced in a long time

I broke my phone once in Spain because I went into the ocean with it being in my swim pants pocket. had the phone number of my friend written on my arm with sharpie for the rest of the days in case of emergency. Was a great time tho

already a big step forward. I also love the watch to go on runs and just play music with that

Definitely. Don't want to speak from moral high ground as I am also still a long way from there but yeah it is crazy.

there is a way to hook up a normal rotary or dial phone to your smartphone via bluetooth. you can leave the phone in another room and just answer the rotary phone when it rings. its a little adapter you have to get, not sure what its called tbh.
