A quiet companion in your Mac menu bar

Deep in work?
Remember to look up.

A gentle cue to lift your eyes from the screen. When it’s time, look at something about 20 feet (6 metres) away—and take a moment to move.

01 / A simple rhythm

No routine to learn.
Just a cue to look up.

Gaze6m sits in your Mac menu bar and keeps a simple timer. When a reminder appears, shift your focus to something in the distance for a short while.

01 SET YOUR PACE
20MIN✳
A default you can change

Choose a rhythm that works

Reminders start every 20 minutes by default. Change the interval and break length from the menu bar.

02 LOOK OUTWARD
Look
about 20 ft
00:20

Clear, easy-to-dismiss reminders

A translucent overlay and countdown appear on your current screen. Take the break or snooze for five minutes.

03 A LITTLE POETRY
✳
行到水穷处,坐看云起时。
Wang Wei · Tang dynasty

A line of poetry, now and then

Show a line from the built-in collection of Chinese poetry—or turn poems off. Your choice.

02 / On your Mac

Your reminders stay yours.
So do your usage details.

Timer, settings and built-in poems run locally. The app does not connect to our servers or collect app-usage data. Apple handles App Store downloads, purchases and updates.

03 Where it started

THE IDEA

Sometimes a good break
starts with looking up.

We wanted a small tool that is easy to use, never turns rest into another task, and stays out of the way. It simply offers a timely nudge to step back from the screen for a moment.

A little more room to look beyond the screen. — Gaze6m

GOOD TO KNOW

A few things
worth knowing.

Will it interrupt me every 20 minutes?+

No. Pause reminders, snooze for five minutes, change the interval or start a break when it suits you.

Does it need an internet connection or an account?+

Everyday timers and reminders work offline, and no account is required. Apple services are used for App Store downloads, purchases and updates.

Do you have pricing yet?+

Not yet. Availability, price and purchase model are still being finalised. The Mac App Store listing will have the definitive details.

Does Gaze6m prevent or treat eye conditions?+

No. It is a break reminder, not a medical device or a substitute for professional advice, diagnosis or treatment.
