User reviews

After a bunch of the Break Timers are not longer usable as their permission were not updated with the new Chrome changes, I needed to find a new reminder to drink water. I thought this extension having three options would be great. However the 'Drink Water' is the only one that does not go below 45 minutes. I want to be reminded to stay hydrated every 20 minutes but the only option with that time available is looking away from the screen.

Não achei eficiente. Quando o tempo é acionado, caso abrir outra pãgina pode continuar. Acho que seria melhor se aplicasse em todas, até o periodo programado chegar ao fim

Esses lembretes são fundamentais para além de cuidar do bem-estar/saúde, lembrar de fazer uma pausa visto que descansando a mente sinto melhorar meu desempenho enquanto trabalho.
