Remember to take breaks periodically and to blink more frequently by receiving amusing notifications right on your Mac's desktop. #Break reminder #Blink reminder #Take break #Break #Reminder #Notifier
Taking small breaks periodically is extremely important, especially if you work in front of the computer for long periods of time. Sitting for too long can affect your circulation, and might lead to serious health problems.
At the same time, if you focus on the screen for too long, you forget to blink your eyes, which usually affects your vision on the long term. By taking a look outside, you change your point of view and blink more frequently which counters these effects.
iWalk is a small OS X application that sends break and blink notifications at intervals defined by the user. For your amusement, iWalk is using animated characters: Gandhi, Einstein, or blinking eyes.
Via the iWalk Preferences window you get to customize the alert message by including your name and a personalized text. The app also comes with built-in encouragement messages translated into various languages.
You can change the reminder time interval which is expressed in minutes, and you can hide the “Click here/press space bar to snooze” message. Working with the iWalk app proves to be fairly intuitive.
iWalk aims to help you improve your work habits, and even your productivity, by reminding you periodically to take short breaks that are essential for your circulation and your vision.
The iWalk alert messages and frequency is easily customizable, and the cute, animated characters can bring a smile on your face every time you receive the notifications.
However, the iWalk capabilities are not very extended: it does not include a break timer, you will not hear audio alerts, you cannot change the animation dimension or location on screen, and so on.
