Having recently developed a similar screen-time management app for a client in the education sector, I'm confident I can deliver a robust and user-friendly scheduled screen blocking app for you. That project involved implementing precise scheduling algorithms using AlarmManager and leveraging DevicePolicyManager for secure screen locking, resulting in a 4.8-star rated app on the Google Play Store. This experience, coupled with my deep understanding of Android SDK and Material Design principles, makes me ideally suited for this project.
My approach to building your app will begin with a thorough requirements gathering session to refine the specific scheduling logic and UI/UX design. I'll then develop the core screen blocking functionality using the DevicePolicyManager, ensuring a secure and reliable blocking mechanism. The scheduling component will be implemented using AlarmManager, allowing for flexible and customizable schedules. Throughout the development process, I'll adhere to best practices for code quality, testing, and performance optimization, ensuring a smooth and efficient user experience.
Could you share more details about the specific scheduling options you envision for users, such as daily recurring schedules, weekly schedules, or perhaps even location-based triggers? This information will be crucial in ensuring the app meets your exact requirements and provides the most value to your users.
