EyeSaver

EyeSaver is a cool little app for OS X that helps you take care of your eyes when you're staring at your computer for too long. We all know how easy it is to get caught up in work and forget to give our eyes a break, right? This app has some handy timers built right in, and it even dims your screen to remind you to look away.

How EyeSaver Works

What's neat about EyeSaver is that it tries to keep you on track without bothering you too much. Instead of annoying alerts telling you it's time for a break, the app just fades your screen for 20 seconds. That's your cue to look away and rest those peepers!

No Fuss Resting Periods

When the break is over, the screen goes back to normal automatically. You don't have to do anything! Plus, even when the screen dims, you can still see what's behind it so it won't disrupt what you're working on.

User-Friendly Status Bar

EyeSaver hangs out in your status bar, making it super easy to start or stop the timers whenever you want. But here's a fun fact: there aren't many customization options available. You just pick from the preset timer options like 10, 20, 30, or 60 minutes.

Delay Functionality

The app also offers a Delay function with its own presets ranging from 40 minutes up to several hours or even days! It helps create those important short breaks every now and then so you can keep your eyesight sharp.

Simple Yet Effective Design

The whole idea behind EyeSaver is pretty straightforward: it creates these little 20-second eye-resting sessions at regular intervals. When it's time for a break, it simply darkens your screen slightly as a gentle reminder. Then once it's done, everything goes back as if nothing happened—easy peasy!
