Rest your eyes from hyperfixation with interesting break-time activities. When you’re deep in it, it sends you off to rest your eyes, at the right moment.
I have ADHD. When I hyperfocus, hours vanish and I forget to look away from the screen. Break reminders never worked for me: one pops up mid-thought and I click it away without looking up. So I built one that makes sure I actually rest my eyes, and when I don’t, tries something else to make looking away interesting instead of a chore.
It’s built around the 20-20-20 rule optometrists suggest: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
I’m not a doctor, and this app isn’t a treatment for ADHD or anything else. It’s a focus tool that helps me. For questions about ADHD or your eyes, talk to a qualified professional.
Your camera confirms your eyes really left the screen, on your Mac with Apple Vision. The 20-second break only counts while you look away.
Close a reminder and the next one changes tack: a one-click picture to pick, then something far away to find. No score, no wrong answer.
Every reminder is a small experiment. Over time it learns which reminders and activities keep you engaged with your breaks, and when you’re ready for one, then gives you more of what works.
It knows when you’re in a call, times breaks around your Apple Calendar, skips apps that need your full attention, and waits for a pause in your typing.
One click gives you 10 seconds, and the reminder comes back at your next pause. Close is always there and always works on the first click.
Stats shows how many times you rested your eyes, reminders shown and skipped, and screen time between breaks, by day, week or 4 weeks. Just the facts: no streaks, no grades.
No internet access: the macOS sandbox blocks every connection. No account, no analytics, no ads.
