Break
Alarm
Know how long you've been grinding. When it's time, Break Alarm dims every screen, starts a countdown, plays a chime, and says your coffee is brewing — so you actually walk away.

What it does
Session & active time
See app-open hours and idle-aware "active" streaks. A gentle banner nudges you after long sessions or a heavy workday.
Full-screen break ritual
Dims all displays at once, starts a break countdown, plays a chime, and speaks a voice reminder — all local, no cloud.
Your rhythm, your rules
Set work-before-break interval, break length, idle grace, and when banners appear. Snooze when you need five more minutes.
Coffee cue
The spoken reminder says your coffee is brewing — a physical, believable cue that pulls you out of the chair instead of a badge you swipe away.
Quick break:
⌘ + ⇧ + B
— triggers a break instantly from anywhere, anytime.
Who it's for
01
Remote workers who lose track of time in deep focus and only notice hours have passed when their back hurts.
02
Anyone who wants a physical cue — dim screen + chime + voice — instead of a tiny notification they instantly swipe away.
03
People pairing strict work blocks with guilt-free coffee breaks — the ritual makes the break feel earned, not stolen.
