Hi everyone, Staring at a screen all day makes your eyes tired and dry. The fix eye doctors recommend is easy: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Easy, and impossible to remember. BlinkMate sits in your Mac's menu bar and reminds you when it's time. You choose how noticeable the reminder is: a quiet change of the menu bar icon, a normal Mac notification, or a window that pops up and counts down. I built it for myself, because the other apps I tried got in the way too much. It's live on the Mac App Store now — free for 14 days, then $9.99 once. No subscription. How do you deal with tired eyes?
