Hey Product Hunt!
I'm Patricio, indie developer from Italy. I built Blackout because I kept quitting focus sessions when no one was watching.
The idea is simple: social pressure works. Gym partners, study buddies — they all work for the same reason. Blackout brings that to your phone.
If you quit a session early, your friends get notified. That's it.
Would love your feedback — especially on the challenge mechanic. Does the social accountability angle resonate with you?
