Eye Check

This is my first app. I wanted to build something simple, but useful for all programmers, or really anyone who uses devices.

What it does

It is a timer. After 20 minutes, or 1200 seconds, it gives a popup that tells the user to look around and exercise their eyes. By doing this simple exercise, one can save their eyes from dryness due to staring at a screen for too long.

How we built it

I built it using dart/flutter and some simple packages in the dart library

Challenges we ran into

I initially wanted to add a sound effect like a bell once the 20s timer was up. However, I couldn't get that to work so I settled with a pop-up.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

This was like a benchmark to me, as it is the first app I developed solo.

What we learned

Programming sure is difficult. The smallest of changes take forever to make.

What's next for Eye Check

I'll still try to get a sound to work.
