## What is MENOU?

MENOU is an app for giving your tired eyes a break during desk work.
It brings a set of eye-care features together in one place.

■ Features
- Gabor patches — a mode for gazing at special striped patterns
- 3D stereograms — search for hidden shapes through stereoscopic viewing
- Focus training — follow a moving mark with your eyes
- Vision self-check — see how you are seeing today with Landolt rings (C)
- Timer — notifies you of work/rest cycles, and keeps going even when the app is closed
- Sound — 25 original tracks and binaural beats, playable together. Playback continues with the screen off, with controls on the lock screen.

■ Designed to stay quiet
- No account registration required
- Training images, audio synthesis and the timer all run on your device
- Ads appear only on idle screens such as Home and Settings — never during training, vision checks, sound playback or while the timer is running
- Anonymous usage statistics (Firebase Analytics) are sent to help improve the app

日本語 / English
