Rest Time is your go-to buddy if you spend hours glued to your computer! Seriously, taking breaks is super important for your eyes and hands. It’s amazing how a quick pause can boost your productivity throughout the day.
When you’re focused on work, it’s easy to forget to take a break. That’s where Rest Time steps in. This handy little tool quietly hangs out in your status bar and gives you a nudge when it’s time to take a breather. It does this with a full-screen alert, so you really can’t miss it!
Using Rest Time is super simple! Just double-click the app, and it will pop up in your status bar. You’ll see how much time is left before your next break, which helps keep you on track.
If you click on its menulet, you get a cool HUD-style interface. Here, you can force yourself to take a break if you're feeling too focused. Need more time? You can pause the countdown or even delay it by choosing from some pre-set times right from the toolbar at the bottom.
You can tweak how long each break lasts and set the intervals between them. There’s even an option for audio alerts if that helps remind you! Just hit the cog wheel button at the bottom right of Rest Time's menu.
Once it's time for a break, Rest Time will cover your screen with a dark overlay that has a countdown timer and pie chart showing how much time is left. Need to get back early? No problem! An “End Break” button pops up every ten seconds during the countdown so you can jump back into work when you're ready.
If you're using multiple monitors, Rest Time has got your back! It automatically pauses when you're away from your Mac and will alert you when it's almost time for that well-deserved timeout at 10, 5, and 3 minutes left.
If you're looking for something to help remind you to take breaks while working on your Mac, then Rest Time is just what you need! It's perfect for avoiding pesky health issues like RSI and eye strain while keeping you focused on tasks. So why not give it a shot?
