Break Buddy
Break reminders your team actually looks forward to
Break Buddy reminds you to hydrate, stretch, and rest your eyes throughout the workday — and turns it into a light team competition. Set your own break intervals, earn points for teams that show up, and climb a shared leaderboard with your coworkers.
I'm Lucho], and I built Break Buddy because I kept losing entire workdays to "just five more minutes" — no water, no standing up, eyes glued to the screen for hours. I wanted something that would nudge me without being annoying, and that felt more like a game than a nagging app.
Break Buddy runs three kinds of breaks — hydration, eye rest, and walk & stretch — on intervals you set yourself. When a break starts, there's a real countdown (not just a "mark as done" button), so it actually counts. Do it with a team and everyone racks up points on a shared leaderboard, which turned out to be a surprisingly fun way to get coworkers to actually take breaks together.
It's free to use solo. Team and company plans exist for the leaderboard/group features, and it's free to try through August 7 while we're gathering feedback from this launch.
I'd love to know: what would make you actually stick with a break app past week one? That's the thing I'm most unsure about, and your answers are going to shape what I build next.
