I built RestNow 2.0 based on the feedback from the last launch.
A lot of you asked for more control, better support for different setups, and a Windows version, so I went back and rebuilt a lot of the experience.
What’s new:
- Windows app
- More control over work and break schedules
- Guided eye, body, and breathing exercises
- Progress and session tracking
- Improved multi-monitor handling
- Smarter meeting and activity detection
- A cleaner, more polished UI
The goal is still to make it easier to take regular breaks without having to rely on memory or willpower. I’ve been using this version daily while working, and I’d love to hear what still feels annoying, missing, or unnecessary.
