LucidSourceKit is supposed to be an all-you-need toolkit for lucid dreaming with a focus on feature richness and customizability. The main idea is to store all your data on your phone where you have full control over it. Therefore the app neither needs nor has the permission android.permission.INTERNET which means the app in and of itself cannot access the internet. In addition to that, an ad-free experience and a modern UI while providing powerful tools are some of the primary goals.
- Setting a pin or password with biometric authentication before the app can be opened
- Creating dream journal entries (text, template, audio) with ratings
- Setting alarms to try to wake you up during REM periodes
- Sending customizable notifications
- Tracking goals to look out for in order to improve awareness
- Playing binaural beats
- Analyzing your progress by viewing journal and usage statistics
- Backup your data by exporting and importing local backups
- And more features in the future...
As stated above, it is being tried to keep all your data on your phone exclusively for as long as you do not export it. Everything is saved locally (unencrypted) on the phone in the applications data directory (which should only be accessible by this app on non-rooted devices). The app does not have the permission android.permission.INTERNET. Therefore it cannot directly connect to the internet. Exceptions would be data automatically processed by Android devices and other data transfers that I am not aware of. If you notice any kind of privacy issues, feel free to report it in the Issues section.
I (the developer of this app) am not a scientist, doctor or anything like that. I am just a programmer who maintains this app as a hobby because it is the app I wish existed. This means it is possible that some features of the app do not work as they should (due to lack of scientific knowledge or similar).
This application is not intended for medical treatment. The application could contain errors, bugs or vulnerabilities which could lead to unexpected or undesireable consequences. If you encounter such problems, feel free to report them in the issues section. Keep in mind that this application still is in a very early development stage and not considered stable yet. The app contains a binaural beats generator that outputs frequencies trying to replicate brain wave cycles. By listening to these binaural beats, your state of consciousness will be altered. Due to the strong and repetitive pulsating rhythms, chilldren and people who are prone to seizures, epilepsy, suffer from mental illnesses or are pregnant are strongly advised not to use this binaural beats generator. I recommend you to seek professional medical advice before use of this app. Use the app at your own risk.
Note
The code quaility is not great at the moment and requires a lot of refactoring which will be done piece by piece in the future.
