PausePal

Reminds you to take short, active breaks and guides you through breathing, stretches and desk exercises.

Sitting still for hours is bad for your body, and short, active breaks make a real difference to both health and focus. The hard part is remembering to take them. PausePal reminds you and makes the break easy. HOW IT WORKS • A quiet timer counts down to your next break, visible right on the toolbar icon. • When it's time, you get a gentle notification. Take a break now or snooze for 5 minutes. • Choose how you want to recharge: breathing, stretches or desk exercises. • Each exercise is illustrated and timed, tells you when to switch sides and moves on by itself. MADE FOR REAL WORKDAYS • 23 exercises, and a new random selection every break so it never gets repetitive. • Discreet mode: only seated exercises that nobody will notice in an open office. • Longer breaks automatically include more exercises. • Step away from your computer and PausePal counts it as a break. • Choose how often and how long your breaks are.
