Health Break


Please note, that this app is retired.

Description

Are you working a lot sitting in front of a computer? Doctors tell me all the time to make a short break at least every hour. A good advice, but I'm losing track of time all the time.

My solution is HealthBreak. It monitors activity over time. You can easily configure your break and your maximum work time. If HealthBreak detects no activity for a time period of the break time, it considers it as a break. On the other hand, if Health Break detects a constant activity that exceeds the maximum working time, the screen becomes blurred. Now it's up to you to either make a break or continue and work a few more minutes. If you decide to take a break, Health Break automatically displays your screen after the configured pause time. The pause is an excellent time for some body exercises.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Health Break respect my privacy?
Of course! Health Break only tracks whether or not an activity occurred. It does not care for which button or key it was. Health Break never stores nor tracks such a kind of information.
I need troubleshooting or have an enhancement request, what to do?
Great, I'm always interested in feedback. In Health Break use the Feedback / Issue reporting item under Help or supply your request here. I try to get back to you as soon as possible.
