As someone who is completely frustrated by the lack of adoption of the metric system here in 'Murica, I am super excited to give this re-imagining of time a go. I love the thinking behind it. Excellent job, Evan!
@aman_goel down, I also want an app that I can use on my android phone.

I've had access to newDay for several weeks. It feels like a perfect quarantine project as I've got fewer anchors to the outside world. 100 minutes feels like a great size for productive work chunks (YMMV) and it feels more important than ever to set intentions for time, to avoid falling into mindless internet browsing for the whole day.
@matthew_bunday Thank you so much for the comment and all your support along the way. It also helps me to stay out of the mindless territory, which is... exactly where I don't want to go. hah.
I've been using this for the past couple weeks and really love it! One thing I wish it had was notifications for when the time block is ending so that I can switch context better
@nivlife I am working on that now! I want to add sounds each time the block ends, and other types of notifications might also be possible.

What I would love is the ability to track and display what I intended vs actually did.
Currently, you set up your intentions for each hour. Others were talking about playing a sound or a message at the end of the hour. What if at the end of the hour it also asks you to summarize what you accomplished (bonus points for mood tracking). Your summary/post-intention can be displayed in the bottom half of each hour.

Another cool feature would be to link to a list of motivating videos/soundscapes appropriate for each hour (i.e. wakeup/energize in the first hour, focus in the second, .. calm down/reflect in the last hour)
Ideally links to such lists would be supplied (crowd-generated / curated/upvoted), but also personally curated lists to start
@lbailey45 Love the way you are thinking - this is definitely along the lines I want to take the product where it lines up relevant content or "scripts" that you can run at each newHour of the day to get you on the right track. There are now sounds "chimes" you can play once at the beginning of the newHour or even every 4 minutes. Check it out in the settings cog.
