An Eye Rest break: a hand-painted scene with the rest timer
Six hand-painted scenes

One for every kind of afternoon.

Your screen fades into a painted world for each break, chosen by the time of day.

Golden dusk over rolling hills
Golden dusk
Sunbeams through a forest
God-rays
A meadow with drifting clouds

Sea shimmer at golden hour

The break itself

Look away. Breathe. Return.

When it's time to rest, the screen doesn't nag. It fades into a full-screen scene with a calm breathing ring. Twenty seconds later you're back, eyes rested.

Always there

In your menu bar, never in your way.

A quiet countdown to your next rest, with a gentle heads-up a few seconds before each break so it never catches you mid-sentence. Smart pause skips video calls and browser video, idle detection won't nag an empty chair, and office hours keep it to your workday.

Questions

Good to know.

Why pay when free break apps exist?

Free break apps get uninstalled, because using them is a chore. Eye Rest is one you'll keep. Try everything free for 14 days, then it's $14.99 once. No subscription, ever.

Will it interrupt my meetings?

No. A few seconds before any break you get a small heads-up, so you can finish your thought, skip, or snooze. Smart pause also skips your breaks during video calls and browser video, idle detection won't nag when you step away, and office hours keep it to your workday.

What do I need to run it?

macOS 14 or later. Eye Rest lives quietly in your menu bar.

How many Macs does one license cover?

Up to 3 Macs during the launch offer. You can free a seat any time from inside the app or your account.

Give your eyes something to look forward to.

Your next break is twenty minutes away. Make it a good one.
