Hello. Cool idea. But wha can curie read my browsing history and manage my apps?
Antonio Viggiano
Nice product, but why does your chrome extension need so many permissions? It's scary.

@aviggiano Hi, access to your browsing history is necessary because Curie can based on that identify if you're browsing the web and are not idle. If you're not browsing the app recognises that and starts automatically a break. Is basically for break tracking without you needing to press a button :)

@donmario Hey. Thank you for the prompt response. I see what you mean, but I'd rather it to only ask for Notifications permissions and to use an alternate method to check if I am not idle. Or even ignore that feature and just assume I am working. Personally, I will only use this extension when I am actively working (as I work from home), so I am fine by just pressing a "start/stop" button, especially if that means reducing the number of requested permissions.

This app has a definitive potential to finally make me do something about my posture and I am more than amazed whit its beautiful simplicity so that is a solid upvote. On the downside, I really dont get why on earth does chrome extension need my browsing history. That is a bit intrusive for an exercise app if you ask me. All in all, it seams like a very nice app!

@ivan_cypher_hristic Hi Ivan, I've actually explained this in a post earlier, but we will double check if there is anything that we could remove in the sense of permissions. Thanks and enjoy your healthier life :)
