Impeccable Design
A lot of thought was put into designing BreakTime. If you're going to be interrupted by something multiple times a day, it sure better look good. So we pushed a lot of pixels before we came up with the final design.
We also added subtle effects (like rotating screws) to make the experience that much more enjoyable. It's the little things.

Or swiftly disable BreakTime so that you can watch a movie without interruption. BreakTime makes it easy to get what you need done and then gets out of your way.

Using BreakTime reduces the continuous time you spend on an activity. Standing up, getting your blood pumping and looking around may reduce the effects of long periods of sitting on your body and eyes.
