Hey! Thank you for your interest and comments!

Just a bit of background thinking.

The app named Introvert is a generative artwork aimed to help you stay off your phone. Right now we´re being asked to lead a sedentary life (for the sake of others and our own wellbeing). Only the mind is allowed to wonder.

I wish Introvert can help us lead a focused everyday where mindful practise will direct us to make the most of these strange days a head.

It’s rather experiment/art project then productivity app:)

Introvert is free and open source.

Please have a try, I would love to hear any feedback!

I don't think I understand the use of the word "Introvert." That, to me, has nothing at all to do with focus or attention or lack thereof? I suppose there could be a suggestion of introspection, but that also has nothing to do necessarily with introversion other than the same prefix.

Great app, I love the ethos.

It would work wonderfully on Apple Watch to show the art being drawn, it's even the correct aspect ratio.

I agree, this would look amazing on the watch.

We already working on it!

Hey thanks for this app, It's beautiful!

I noticed an interesting bug however. On my device (iPhone 8), when you swipe up from the bottom while the timer is running (to select things like flash light), and then close it by swiping down, the timer automatically goes to 0 and the interval is marked complete.

I have a question - how did you get started with generative art?

Love this idea, and the images generated are great ... how to save them, tho? I click a finished image and press the down arrow, but nothing happens...

I tried it. I like it but being 40+ I find the art it generates at the edge of too small for my eyes. Love the audio thought.

Great idea! Love the idea of creating apps that promote concentration rather than diminish it.
