itrymybest hopes to help users take a step back and think before sending out that potentially harmful comment.
Using itrymybest is very easy. The user inserts their unsent message into the textbox and hits send. Almost instantly, an analysis of their message appears. In this analysis, we focus on the tone and offensiveness of the message.
For tone, our app picks the highest-scoring emotion out of the 5 - 'Angry', 'Fear', 'Happy', 'Sad' and 'Surprise. This gives the user a suggestion on how their message can be perceived by others.
For offensiveness, our app scans for things such as swear words and slurs. It takes a step forward and gives a detailed explanation of what the word means. Sometimes, a certain word might not be what we thought it would be. With this function, users get to learn the meaning of the word and understand why it might be offensive to some.
itrymybest hopes to promote critical thinking. Allowing users to analyze and see if their comment is constructive or just plain rude.
"Think before you act", by fostering critical thinking skills, the Internet can be fun and engaging.

DeskFocus allows students to increase their productivity and get more work done. This multipurpose app is designed to build long-term and sustainable motivation.
It includes features such as a Pomodoro Timer, a built-in dictionary and a web blocker.
What makes our application so special is that many applications in the market are specifically built with only one of these functions and cannot be used in other ways, meaning you’d have to find multiple different applications solely to get more productive. Some would argue that this is inherently counterproductive because of that time wasted. This one app allows you those functions right on the spot, with absolute ease.

DeskTranslate is a tool which does live translation of any application on your desktop using optical character recognition technology.
No longer do you have to break immersion by going through the hassle of copying and pasting foreign text onto Google translate (if it is even possible - as many times words are not being displayed in copy-able format).
With DeskTranslate, just sit back and relax as translated text seamlessly gets displayed on your screen.
If your eyes got tired, we got text2speech for you too!
