Up Yet is a break alarm for people who spend their day in front of a computer. Long screen sessions are easy to ignore until your eyes, neck, shoulders, or focus start pushing back. Up Yet helps you take regular breaks before that happens, using clear nudges and strong alarms when it is time to step away. Choose the nudge level that fits how you work: gentle reminders, persistent prompts, or a real alarm when you need something harder to miss. Powered by iOS AlarmKit, Up Yet is built to make break time noticeable, reliable, and difficult to overlook. Use Up Yet to: - Rest your eyes during long computer sessions - Build a healthier break routine - Reduce “just one more minute” work drift - Step away before fatigue builds up - Improve focus with regular recovery time - Choose between gentle, persistent, and alarm-level reminders - Perfect for developers, designers, office workers, students, remote workers, and anyone who faces a screen every day.
