App summary

Work productively - Rest on time

Work Break app is an easy and simple solution to schedule your breaks with personalized reminders and be reminded when to rest during a workday. Keep your body and mind healthy by taking time to stand up, move, stretch, drink or eat.

Be more focused and productive

Increase your productivity by taking rest on time.

Long sedentary working hours without proper breaks might fatigue your brain, slow down your thinking processes, cause difficulties to focus and exhaust you by the end of the work day.

This affects your productivity, your mental state, your health and whether you are coming back home fresh to enjoy your free time or totally exhausted.

Keep your body and mind healthy and avoid injuries

Long sitting hours without breaks might cause Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI), chronic pain in spine, joints and sinews.

Be reminded to stand up, stretch, move, stay hydrated, and take time to eat or any other personalized reminder that you need during your day.

Healthy food is essential for brain function and regeneration of body and mind.

Ended up uninstalling, not because it's not a good app (it does exactly as promised!) just that it's too inflexible for a realistic workday when surprise meetings, phonecalls and other interruptions stop you taking breaks when scheduled. If you have a more rigid routine or workplace, this will probably be great for you.

Very powerful app with nice features. Very non-distracting notifications. No easy option to set a 20 minute timer, you have to go in the settings and change the start of your workday. Also still has ads even if you buy an ad-free license. But always works and doesn't fail to send notifications ever. Also no annoying sounds when the app notifies you.

I love this app, I just wish I could set an end-of-work day time. Since I have a 30 minute lunch my ending shift is 6:30 and not 7. The schedule does allow you to change the hours worked but it won't save it. Or for me, it won't. I have tried several times. I still give it 5 stars though because I use it for breaks and it reminds me as it should. I also wish I could set my schedule for the month. This only allows for a day at a time.
