Description

Pause periodically reminds you to take a break, and step away from the computer.

You can customise how frequently you want to take a break, how long they should last, and set suggestions for activities to perform.

Pause includes multiple notification styles, so you can choose whether breaks should always be manually started with a click, or if they should automatically begin with a 5 second countdown.

When you’re in the zone at work or want to kick back and watch a movie, enter Flow to stop break notifications.

On macOS Monterey, Pause supports Shortcuts so you can automate changes to your settings.

Pause is fully localised in Spanish. If you would like to help add support for other languages, please contact me at pause@harshil.net.

Pause is and will always remain free to use.
