Abstract

In today's digital age, excessive screen time has become a widespread concern, leading to health problems like eye strain and disrupted sleep patterns. To tackle this issue and optimize the use of mobile device resources, we propose an innovative system that monitors users' screen time and automatically activates Dark Mode when predefined time limits are exceeded. The proposed system offers user customization, allowing individuals to set their preferred time limits, giving them control over their digital habits. When a user surpasses their set screen time limit, the proposed system alert user to seamlessly switches to Dark Mode. By reducing screen brightness and other power-intensive features in Dark Mode, it helps conserve battery life, reduce heat generation, and prolong device lifespan. The Applicaion successfully integrates with a user-friendly interface with a timed notification system, effectively encouraging users to consider and implement Dark Mode for their device display. Additionally, by promoting focused and efficient screen usage, it minimizes unnecessary data consumption. Through this system, users can experience reduced eye strain, better sleep, extended battery life, and improved overall digital well-being through this innovative solution. The application's seamless integration with Android 13 and its responsiveness on the specified device specifications validate its practicality and usability.
