Dejal Time Out 1.5.5 is really an essential program which will gently remind you to take a break on a regular basis.
Major Features:
- Time Out has two kinds of breaks: a "Normal" break, typically for 10 minutes after 50 minutes of work, so you can move about and relax, plus a "Micro" break: a very brief pause of typically 10 seconds every 10 minutes, so you can remember not to tense up too much for long periods. You can disable either kind of break if desired, and the breaks are automatically paused when you go away from your computer, and can be reset when you come back.
- You can configure how long each kind of break lasts, and how long between breaks. Each Time Out is announced via the screen slowly dimming, with related graphics materializing, and when the break is complete, it fades out again. You can change the time these transitions take... and you can even change the color and the level of transparency during the break. So if you like, you can make it mostly transparent so you can continue reading while on your break... though it's better for you if you give your eyes a rest during the Time Out.
- While in a break, a progress bar shows how long till it is over, and buttons are available to postpone or skip the break if you can't be interrupted right then. Starting with version 1.5, you can change the number of minutes for the postpone buttons, or even hide them and/or the skip button, if you want to encourage yourself to take the breaks.
- What's more, you can optionally play a sound and even run an Automator workflow, AppleScript, Python script, or application at the start and/or end of each break. So you can have it pause iTunes and play a short soothing piece of music at the start of a break, then a buzzer and resume iTunes when the break is over. Some useful scripts are provided built-in, plus updates and user-submitted ones available on the Time Out Extras page.
- Rebuild Your Vision: While on a break, you can simply close your eyes or change your focus to rest your eyes. But another option is to try an exercise program to actively improve your eyesight. One such set of exercises offered by a third-party company is called Rebuild Your Vision. It includes exercises, guidance, and more to help train your eye muscles. Read more about it if this sounds interesting.
Enhancements: Enhanced Snow Leopard compatibility.
Requirements: Mac OS X 10.4 or later; Universal Binary; Snow Leopard-ready

Time Clock 1.3.1
Time Clock is such a professionally designed program to help the user keep track of time spent on a project and remind the user when to take breaks. more>>
Time Clock 1.3.1 is such a professionally designed program to help users keep track of time spent on a project and remind the user when to take breaks. The user can set the desired time between breaks. If the user is not ready to take a break when prompted, he can postpone the break before he is reminded again and this time is also settable. A log is provide. Settings, log and running time are saved between sessions.
Major Features:
- When Time Clock is launched, you see the Time Clock window where the Running Time is displayed and the user can set two time periods: the time between breaks and the minutes to postpone a break.
- You can minimize the Time Clock window or just use the small triangle to shrink the window and move it somewhere out of the way on the display. The Time Clock window can be retrieved by selecting "Time and Settings" on the Time Clock menu or by clicking on the Time Clock icon on the Dock.
- Clicking on the Time Clock menu reveals the seven menu choices: "Thank You" to clear the message without stopping the running clock, "Start Clock" to start the running time, "Stop Clock" to stop the running time, "Postpone Break" to let you continue to work a bit longer (like a snooze button), "Time and Settings" to bring up the Time Clock Window, "Show Log" to show the Time Clock Log with Start Times, Stop Times and Notes, and "Reset Time" to reset the running time to zero.
- When it is time for a break, the display will be covered with a pale yellow film to get your attention and you will see the message above. You can see through the film and click on a menu pick to take the desired action. Other messages are displayed in the same manner when appropriate.
- The first row of Time Clock Log was added by Starting and Stopping the Time Clock. The note for this row was added by clicking in the row to select the row, pausing and then clicking in the Note part of the row to highlight that cell, typing or editing the note and clicking on another row or using the "Enter" key. The second row was added manually by filling the date, hour, minute and note fields and clicking the "Add" button. The running time fields (Hr ; Min) indicate the total running time of all rows; this information is also indicated on the Time Clock Window. The Time Clock Log can be printed.
- All settings and the running time are saved between sessions.
Enhancements:
- Compatible with Snow Leopard
- Fixes a bug.
- Data is retained.

Time Out! - Break reminder tool with micro-breaks!
Dejal Time Out! will gently remind you to take a break on a regular basis. It is very easy to fall into bad habits when using a computer for hours on end.

Time Out! has two kinds of breaks: a Normal break, typically for 10 minutes after 50 minutes of work, so you can move about and relax, plus a Micro break: a very brief pause of typically 10 seconds every 10 minutes, so you can remember not to tense up too much for long periods.
Enhancements

- Fixed an issue with the Preferences window, where edits might not be saved when quitting with the window still open (specifically when an edit is still active).
- Removed the old crash reporter, since it doesnt support Leopard crash logs.
- Now requires a minimum of Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger).
