About Why? – mindful unlocks

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.
