When working on something important, we tend to forget to take a break every now and again, which can't be a healthy thing. BlinkReminder is here to remind us to get up from time to time or at least look away from our monitors for a few seconds. It has a simple, yet convenient design, which makes it easy to use for any user, regardless of experience. Just run in on your computer and the application will make sure you remember to stretch your legs and give your eyes a rest.

BlinkReminder is offered completely free of charge, and you can have it up and running on your computer in no time. It provides support for any modern Windows system, and it doesn't have any special requirements.

The recommended settings are made by default, so you only need to let the application run quietly in the background. It's programmed to display reminders for short and long breaks at certain intervals. When triggered, the application will display a message on the entire screen and disable the keyboard input, but it will also show a skip option when displaying reminders for long breaks, in case you can't take a break at that specific moment. Also, to avoid getting in the way of your work, you can pause the application, through its system tray icon, and resume it later.

The application lets you modify the intervals between short and long breaks, as well as their lengths. You can also enable or disable the skip button for both break types. Furthermore, the messages BlinkReminder displays during the breaks are editable, and you can also add your own custom quotes to the list, for each brake separately.

With BlinkReminder, you don't have to give up too many resources or put in too much effort to be reminded to care for your health.

Pros

The application reminds you to take regular breaks. It lets you customize all time intervals and create custom messages.

Cons

There are no obvious drawbacks to address.
