Eye breaks from your menu bar
Blink
A calm menu bar companion that helps your eyes rest, right on schedule.
Overview
Blink is a native macOS menu bar app that helps you follow the 20-20-20 rule without breaking your flow: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
Keep a gentle countdown in your menu bar, take or snooze a break in one click, and rest with a full-screen break that guides a short eye exercise.
- 01
Always one click away
Pause, resume, snooze or take a break right from the menu bar.
- 02
Breaks you look forward to
A calm full-screen moment instead of a nagging pop-up.
- 03
Stays on your Mac
All timing and stats stay local. Nothing is uploaded.
