After a year of beta, I launched the app that helps to keep your work and distractions under control

Y-Productive – Personal Productivity Tracker

Hello hackers!

I bet many of us find fighting distractions and focusing on work - especially when there`s no boss over you - more difficult than ever. Companies like Facebook, YouTube, messengers, and fun sites spend budgets to create features and content that will distract us for sure. Not to mention that sometimes we just have a hard time to actually “eat that frog” :)

For me, the ability to concentrate and work fruitfully is every day`s necessity. I have a wife and a 2-year old son, so I want to finish my tasks on time, close my laptop and pay all the attention to my family and have some rest.

So I and my friends have built an app called Y-Productive. The app provides a real-time performance feedback, helps to spot and prevent distractions, and closely works with improving your work habits.

After a year of beta and a long way from an MVP to a shiny product, today we launched it on ProductHunt. It’s an opportunity to hear from a lot of people and learn how we can make the product even better. If you want to achieve more control over your workflow and don’t mind helping our team, today is a good chance to try the app.

Check it out and share your opinion on ProductHunt`s page - we’ll be there, answering any questions about the app. Plus, we’ve got some unique discounts for the occasion ;)

Here’s the link if you’re interested to give it a shot or just want to help:

    I like the app so far!
    Any plans for Linux version?

      In a future may be. Every OS needs maintenance for every new feature we implement, and to deal with bugs.
      I guess the most clever thing would be to finish all the features we plan to add, and then look if we can allow supporting one more OS.
      Not to mention a lot of people want mobile apps too :)

      Hi Seth!

      Glad you like it! We spent a lot of sleepless nights to make the chart simple and insightful.

      Appreciate you get the idea. I think, for the indie devs and entrepreneurs time is the greatest resource - not only for work, but also to spend it with our close friends and families.
      Distractions are not worth to miss the important.
