Ratings and Reviews
Nice concept, not very customiziable.
The concept is good (get up and move or look away from the screen).
Unfortunatly, the time to “get up and move” is every minute which is too agressive. If there could be a preference for every 20-60 mins that would be far better.
The 20-20-20 rule for looking away from the screen is based on scientific studies, so I’m ok with that timing. However, if I am looking away from the screen, I can’t tell when the “time is up” banner appears. Mabey there could be an auditable “ping” or accessibility screen flash at the end. (Just realize that I had the sound turned down and I do get the standard notification ping but the screen flash when sound is disabled would be nice)
Overall, the app is essencially a count down timer with notifications. Although I needed something like this app and paid $1.99 it might be better priced at $.99 US.
I would pass...
More than half of the time the timer doesn't start when I start my computer. I have to manually start it and if I forget, well, what's the point? It's also frustrating that the notifications continue even if the screen is asleep and has been for hours. Be sure to mute it if you walk away from your computer for more than 20 minutes.
Breaks one out of hyperfocus
Without this app, I will not do what I know is healthy for me to do.
It really does help encourage the right behaviors! Stay healthy.
