Enable JavaScript to use this tool.
Using Screen Break Timer
- Choose a screen-work interval; the default is twenty minutes.
- Enable an end bell if wanted, then begin the timer.
- At the end, look away toward a comfortable distant point for about twenty seconds. You can take a break earlier.
A practical example
This is a reminder to interrupt near-screen work. It does not measure eye strain, run an eye test or automatically track how long you actually looked away.
Good to know
Browser timers can be delayed or suspended by operating-system power saving, a closed tab or a sleeping device. Keep this page open while using it. These tools are for ordinary personal use, not safety-critical timing.
Does this require an account?
No. The whole tool is free to use here. Saved preferences and personal records remain in your current browser.
Can I use it on my phone?
Yes, with touch controls. Keep the page open for timers and audio. Your phone may suspend background tabs when it locks or conserves power.
