Longer description
Most break reminders pop up a window or dim your screen, and most get ignored. Glueys takes a different approach: a small creature lives in your Mac's menu bar and does each break with you. Every 20 minutes it blinks slowly and looks far away with you; every half hour it hops up to stretch; Gloop sips water with you and munches a carrot on a break, while Ripple blows bubbles and soaks in a drop of coffee, and Cedar has a coffee, whittles a bit of wood and chops a log. It waits for natural pauses, hides during calls and full-screen apps, and counts the breaks you actually take, including the ones you take on your own. Glueys has no account, no analytics and no internet connection; it only knows whether you're at your Mac.
