Designed for Modern Professionals

Breather understands your workflow and adapts to your needs

Meeting-Aware

Never get interrupted during important calls or presentations. Breather intelligently detects when you're in meetings and pauses notifications.

Smart Break Detection

Already stepped away? Breather notices and smartly pauses or resets itself, ensuring you get credit for natural breaks you take.

Focused Break Mode

Need to truly disconnect? Enable "force mode" to block all interactions and ensure you take that essential breather you deserve.

Gentle Reminders

Get a friendly heads-up before your next break, so you can finish your current task without interruption.

Custom Durations

Tailor your break schedule to your preferences. Short eye breaks, longer stretch sessions, or custom intervals - you're in control.

Scheduled Lockdowns

Set automatic computer locks for specific times (like past midnight) to maintain healthy boundaries between work and rest.

Simple, Functional Interface

Minimal design that stays out of your way until you need it
