Why? – mindful unlocks

Asks why you unlock your phone. See your habits. No internet. No tracking.
Version: 1.0.1

Why? asks one question each time you unlock your phone: what brings you here?

Tap a reason, tap "Just habit", or type your own. Over the days you see what really pulls you to your phone, and when.

What you get
• A question after each unlock, with your reasons sorted for the time of day
• Today's jar: every unlock drops a pebble. Tilt the phone and the pebbles roll.
• A week view: daily jars, where the time went, and your habit hours
• A gentle check-in when you stay longer than you planned
• An evening summary with the day's numbers
• Typed answers you use often can become reasons with one tap

Private by design
• Everything stays on your phone
• No internet permission, no accounts, no ads, no tracking
• Never reads which apps you use: it only notices unlocks and screen off

Permissions
• Display over other apps: to show the question
• Notifications: Android needs a small notification to keep the app running
• Battery set to "Unrestricted" (recommended), so Android does not stop the app

Free and open source.
