Detection
EyeJolt watches camera-visible eye closure and platform-specific face signals. Other apps may use PERCLOS, head motion, wearables, steering, or scheduled prompts.
Alert design
EyeJolt randomizes a curated sound rotation and supports custom recordings. Many fatigue alerts use one or a small set of warning tones.
Privacy
EyeJolt does not record or upload camera frames. Review each alternative’s current privacy disclosure because local detection does not always mean no image retention.
Platforms
EyeJolt spans iOS, Android, macOS, web, and planned Windows support. Alternatives may specialise in one mobile platform or driving context.
Background use
Native EyeJolt desktop monitoring can continue behind other apps. Browser monitoring remains foreground-only; mobile behaviour depends on platform constraints.
Safety
Neither EyeJolt nor another consumer fatigue alert should be treated as proof that a person is fit to drive or work.
