PopAlert (2023), made with Vera Zhong

Got countless unread emails, text messages, and notifications? Always being accused of ghosting or being flaky? “PopAlert” is an Android phone add-on that encourages its users to check their notifications in a timely fashion.

Once plugged in, the balloon on the device inflates for 3 seconds for every unread notification. For each notification read, the balloon deflates for 3 seconds. Check your notifications — don’t let it explode.
