Tips for Power Users

1. Fine-Tune Tracking Settings

Although LiFi automatically tracks navigation, time, interactions, and more, you can take control by:

  • Temporarily disabling tracking via the popup if you’re working in private or sensitive sessions.

  • Using incognito mode with tracking disabled to keep specific sessions out of analytics.

  • Turning off specific trackers (e.g., cookies or interactions) using internal flags (if exposed in your version).

Tip: Use tracking selectively when doing focused work sessions — LiFi will help you analyze only what matters.


2. Use the Dashboard for Weekly Reviews

The analytics dashboard isn't just for browsing stats. Power users treat it like a weekly report card.

Workflow Tip: Set aside 10 minutes every Sunday to review your data and set a focus goal for the week.


3. Leverage AI Insights Intelligently

LiFi’s AI engine (powered by Google Gemini API) goes beyond raw data. Use it to:

  • Track your productivity score over time and correlate with changes in work routines.

  • Let it infer your interests and compare with your actual goals.

  • Use AI recommendations to set time-blocking schedules or site limits.

Pro Tip: Use AI’s peak hour suggestions to build a focused routine around your most productive times.


4. Master Data Export and Analysis

LiFi supports JSON export for all collected data. Power users can:

  • Export data weekly for external analysis or journaling.

  • Feed data into tools like Notion, Obsidian, or Excel for custom reporting.

  • Use exported search history to revisit research, topics, or information trails.

For developers or data-savvy users, this opens up long-term tracking and personal knowledge graph possibilities.


5. Protect Your Privacy Strategically

LiFi gives full control over your data, so you can:

  • Wipe data regularly for privacy or to start fresh analytics cycles.

  • Use the cookie tracker to monitor which sites are dropping third-party cookies.

  • Refer to the privacy score as a baseline to assess risk exposure.

6. Create Your Own Browsing Goals

Power users don’t just observe — they act on insights. Set personal challenges like:

  • Spend less than 1 hour per day on social media

  • Increase time on learning platforms by 20% weekly

  • Reduce session length on entertainment sites

Track your progress through LiFi’s dashboard and AI summary tabs.


7. Combine LiFi with Other Tools

LiFi works best when paired with:

  • Website blockers (e.g., LeechBlock or uBlock) to limit time-wasting sites

  • Productivity timers (e.g., Pomofocus) aligned with peak activity windows

  • Daily journaling apps to reflect on insights from LiFi data

This creates a full-stack productivity ecosystem rooted in awareness and action.

Summary

LiFi offers more than passive analytics — it empowers you to transform data into decisions. With these advanced strategies, you can:

  • Gain deeper insights into your behavior

  • Stay aligned with your personal or professional goals

  • Improve digital well-being and data awareness

LiFi is a tool. Power users make it a system.
