A visual timer like a slim reverse progress bar at the top or bottom of the screen.
This would ideally not block anything of the app in use, but still be a visual cue in the corner of our eye to see how much of use time is left before the next intervention.
This way the brain can pre-adjust instead of being hit with an intervention in the middle of a super interesting piece of short content that feels oh-so important to finish.
Especially important for those with time blindness and struggling with transitions (eg ADHDers)! Helps with inner resistance.
Options:
On the side of the screen
Hovering pie chart timer that can be adjusted in size and position
Super cool extra:
Slowly dimming the screen in the last 1-2 minutes with an overlay so it even works when the phone is on its lowest brightness? Or switching to gray scale / slowly desaturating?
