PROBLEM: 

OKK...let us have a look around  and question ourselves why is our screentime  so high???

instagram,whatsapp,youtube..these platforms are bulid for dailylife human applications but rather we made them "ADDICTIONS".

lately,i was thinking how can we avoid this addiction as i am also getting driven when i am watching reels in instagram.then,i thought of an idea of a game...YEAH why not a game can make sure to reduce our screen time.(INTERESTING..!!!).

SOLUTION:

SOO...

as any app does my game also asks the permissions(like notifications,access to camera..)but this game asks permission to take over or shut the phone for a duration of time fixed by the player or user if he/she loses the game.

as the game goes,

the objective of the levels are simple but completing them is not 

the game will randomise your phone controls 

EXAMPLE:

(if you want to increase the volume of the mobile,

as usual, you will press the volume up button but that can access your mobile brightness or can open your mobile camera...etc.)

so as the time ticks , you have to find out a way or a control that can actually increase the volume..

if you win,you go to next level where timer is less than compared to the previous level.

if you lose,your mobile will shut off for a duration of time(set by you).

as there will be only 5 levels,for each level the controls are going to reset and objective changes ( timer exists ).

any way the game will be designed as you get off  phone  atleast 2 times.

also,the game can be played only for a 30 minutes of time per a day.(to avoid addiction for this game).

but there is a problem here what if the phone is shut and there is an emergency.

so..there will be 3 phone numbers given to app to call in emergency time and permission to 2 apps which can be open even while phone is shut.

SOLUTIONS FOR SCREEN REDUCTION(FOR PRESENT TIME):

1)actually smartphones have a feature of informing when screen time of an average is high for a period of a time.

2)there are a lot of third party apps and softwares to help reduce screen time even change the screen to grayscale mode(black and white) to make it look less appealing.

3) For families, parents control device settings are used to manage a child's screen time

WHO BENEFITS:

1)people who are looking forward to work on themselves can have time reserved for them.

2)people who are addicted to instagram and other social media platforms can get rid of them.

3)students can have thier time instead of scrolling randomly watching some random stuff on internet.

4)people who actually prefer "gamified" way to get things done will also enjoy the app.

5)people with anxiety,stress and sleeping issues cn be solved.

6)digital awareness can be spread out a lot and people can live of thier lives without the phone in thier hands. 

WHY THIS PROBLEM MATTERS TO YOU:

this phone  addiction has been a major problem in my daily life.i noticed my time is being wasted a lot while i was watching reels on instagram.sleeping times are soo lost and anxiety hits a lot . the ease to work actually vanishes . so to get rid of addiction this is an actual way and when i look around this has been a common problem for all.

TECHNICAL DETAILS:

The app must contain a randomization engine to generate random values for these controls. This can be based on various factors, such as a timer, user actions, or a predefined schedule.

FOR ANDROID,

as android is more open than IOS,but since it also has security permissions to be given To achieve this randomise functionality, the app would likely need to utilize specific permissions and APIs.android.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS: This is a "dangerous" permission that allows an app to modify system settings.

FOR IOS,

An app has very limited access to system-level settings, and this is a significant barrier to creating a full-featured randomization app.
