## Kitsmith's take

A Mac staple for well over a decade, from before "wellness app" was a phrase. Free to use with optional supporter unlocks, deeply configurable, and still the default answer for structured break reminders.

## Features

- **Normal and micro breaks:** Two break types on independent, fully customizable schedules.
- **Break themes:** HTML, websites, videos, images, or plain text during a break — pick what a pause looks like.
- **Break actions:** Trigger notifications, sounds, scripts, or Automator workflows when a break starts or ends.
- **Activity tracking:** Charts show how consistently you’re actually taking breaks.
- **Postpone and skip:** A progress bar with the option to postpone or skip when a break is genuinely bad timing.
