vharsoor/android-app--notification-manager-calendar-integration

Developed an app with kotlin featuring a notification manager allowing users to set a timer and selectively mute notifications from chosen apps. Integrated seamlessly with Google Calendar for convenient event planning and management within the same application.

This app helps you focus by blocking distracting notifications and organizes your tasks and events with a calendar.
