Intermezzo: Break Timer

Intermezzo reminds you to rest your eyes — calmly, on every screen you use. Every 20 minutes (or any interval you choose), a serene full-screen break invites you to look away, breathe, and reset. When you're back, so is your focus. WORKS EVERYWHERE, TOGETHER Start a break on your Mac and your iPhone and iPad pause with it — at the same instant. Intermezzo syncs over iCloud anywhere, and uses your local Wi-Fi for split-second alignment between devices on the same network. DESIGNED TO BE IGNORED (UNTIL IT MATTERS) No nagging countdowns. On the Mac, the time to your next break lives quietly in the menu bar; on iPhone and iPad the home screen stays calm. When it's time, a gentle chime and a breathing overlay do the rest. Postpone or skip whenever life happens. RESPECTS YOUR BATTERY AND YOUR PRIVACY No background polling — Intermezzo schedules ahead and sleeps. No accounts or tracking. Anonymous, aggregate settings analytics help us improve the app; your personal data never leaves your own iCloud and your own network. • Follows the 20-20-20 eye-care rule out of the box; fully configurable • Synchronized breaks and settings across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, and Apple Watch • Menu-bar-only mode on the Mac • Light/dark adaptive themes: System, Calm, Midnight, Forest • Free for 10 days, then $14.99 once — no subscription.
