Hey everyone, Srinivas here, the other half 👋
@kamalraaj_senthilkumar shaped what ZenMode OS is: the Zen Score, the promises, the weekly review, the feel. I spent most of my time on how it works underneath, and in this version we both crossed over a bit. He shipped code, I did more product work. That swap made v3 better.
A few things from the engineering side:
🏠 It's a real launcher, not a blocker app. ZenMode replaces your home screen, so the calm starts the moment you unlock your phone, not after you've already opened Instagram.
🔒 Your per-app usage stays on your phone. Only your daily total and Zen Score sync, and only so your buddy or Circle can see them. No ads, no selling data.
🧑💻 The code is public (GPLv3), so you can check for yourself: https://github.com/ThammanaSrinivas/zenmode
🎁 For launch day: use ZENPRO90 for 90 days of ZenMode Pro.
We built this with a two-person team and a lot of late nights. If something breaks, feels off, or you'd like a feature, tell me here. I'm reading every comment today.
@kamalraaj_senthilkumar @srinivas_thammana Congrats on the launch! Really like the idea behind ZenMode and the focus on mindful phone usage. Great to see it being built open source. Wishing the team all the best! 🙌
@kamalraaj_senthilkumar @srinivas_thammana @ganesh1234 Building it open is the initial mutual thought me & srinivas had!! We never imagined that turned out this well!! Thanks for the kind words too! How was your first imperssion?
It's a boon to this distractable era wherein we think it's our gadgets : the cause of distraction. But, I found ZenMode, such a cool app, helping me use my device mindfully. Thanks a ton for creating it ❤️
Really cool product. Honestly I haven't seen anything else which is minimal yet aesthetically pleasing
Very good-looking UI and easy-to-go-to flow. If you want to keep your promise, just try ZenMode OS and know where your time goes.
@raahul_sd Thanks Raahul!! Hope you love the ZenMode Experience, Our Zen bro
