What is LookAway?

LookAway is a macOS app designed to help reduce eye strain and increase productivity by prompting users to take regular breaks after prolonged screen use.

It's gentle, smart, and fully customizable. Once launched, it takes a back seat and quietly takes care of your eye health - without ever interrupting your flow.

Key features:

• Short and long breaks: Rest your eyes with frequent short breaks and relax both your mind and body with occasional longer breaks.

• Fully customizable: Modify break intervals, durations, or choose to postpone - LookAway adjusts to fit your workflow perfectly.

• Pre-break notifications: A gentle heads-up before your break lets you wrap up tasks and ensures your flow is not abruptly broken.

• Idle-time detection: LookAway smartly pauses or resets the timer when you're not working. It only works when you do.

• Meetings detection: LookAway knows when you're in a call or meeting and pauses automatically so you're not interrupted.

• Multiple screens: Using an external monitor or two? No problem! LookAway handles multiple screens seamlessly.

• Sound effects: LookAway plays a gentle chime to let you know when a break is over and brings you back to focus mode.

• Delightful design: LookAway is designed with a lot of love and care to make it delightful and super easy to use.

• At your fingertips: It comes with a menu bar icon which shows the live status and gives you instant access to quick settings.
