Restful vs Pace

Restful - Built for bodies that need more rest. Living with chronic fatigue, ME/CFS, post-COVID, or burnout means rest isn't optional, it's essential. But building a consistent rest routine is hard, especially when your energy is unpredictable and every day looks different. Rest & Recharge was designed specifically to help. This app gently reminds you to close your eyes and rest at regular intervals throughout the day. No complicated setup, no overwhelming features. Just a timer, a reminder, and a reason to keep going. WHY REST YOUR EYES? For people with chronic illness, sensory overload from screens accelerates fatigue. Regular eye rest breaks - even 10 to 20 minutes, can reduce symptom flare-ups, preserve energy, and help you pace your day. Rest & Recharge makes this effortless. SMART, GENTLE REMINDERS Set rest intervals that match your energy levels, from every hour to every 3 hours. The app learns your wake-up time, respects quiet hours at night, and adjusts reminders around your actual schedule. If you miss a rest, it gently nudges you without guilt. TWO TIMER MODES Choose between a countdown Timer (set duration, counts down) or a Stopwatch (counts up, finish when ready). Perfect for flexible rest sessions where you don't know how long you'll need. A TIMER THAT WORKS FOR YOU Start the countdown or stopwatch, close your eyes, and put your phone down. The timer continues in the background and alerts you when your rest is complete. Even in silent mode. On iOS 16+, a Live Activity keeps the timer visible on your Lock Screen so you never have to wonder how much time is left. BONUS REST MODE Need an extra rest without disrupting your reminder schedule? Enable "Bonus Rest" to take additional rests that don't reset your next reminder time. TRACK YOUR PACING Rest history shows your patterns by week, month, or year. Set a daily rest goal, build streaks, and see how your routine improves over time. Log your wake-up time each morning to anchor your day and keep your pacing on track. Each rest logs its actual duration so you can see exactly how much you've rested.
