Study Time - Developed app to reduce distractions while studying
By Alicia Sykes, on Friday 21st October 2016. Categorised in Computers.Introduction
Study Time is an open source Android application to reduce distractions while studying.

The interface is simple, you enter the amount of time you need to stay focused for, and press start. Study mode will mute all notifications and disable home and back buttons. It's not immediately easy to get out of the app once your in study mode, though you do still have access to core features such as emergency dialer, time... Once the timer reaches zero you once again have full access to your phone.
Technical Details
The app is built as a launcher that temporarily overrides the users default launcher. This will ensure that if they press the home button they can not close the app easily. There is also a timer that will run once study mode is enabled.
