ScreenSage: Break Reminder
20-20-20 Eye Break Reminder
Only for Mac

Mac
Your wise companion for healthier screen time.
Long hours at your desk can quietly take a toll on your eyes, leaving them tired, dry and strained. ScreenSage lives in your Mac's menu bar and reminds you to rest your eyes throughout the day.
It's built around the 20-20-20 rule that optometrists recommend: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. It's a simple habit that makes a real difference.
Breaks you'll actually take
When a break is due, ScreenSage waits for a natural pause in your typing, then gives you a 10-second heads-up before the break screen appears. Start now, or choose Not yet for a little more time. Skip or snooze is one click away, but it's much harder to ignore than a notification banner, and it won't cut you off mid-sentence.
Pick a look with personality
Owl: a wise companion who gets sleepy when you do
Sage: ink, paper, patience
Arcade: your eyes have a health bar
Console: a tiny instrument for your eyes
Horizon: look somewhere far away
You can also design your own break screen with your GIFs and images, captions, animations, background and countdown style.

• Clearer waiting breaks: when a break is held for a call, a full-screen app or Smart Pause, the timer now shows why. Tap Start now to take the break anyway.
• Choose what shows in Fill mode: pick which part of your photo or GIF stays visible on the break screen.
• Open at login and timing changes in Quick Tweaks now behave as you'd expect, without resetting your timer.
• Bug fixes and stability improvements.
