Your rhythm
Every 30 minutes, every 3 hours, or any time you set. Breather stays quiet until then.
A tray app for Windows
Your screen can wait. Breathe.
Breather sits quietly in your tray and, on a rhythm you choose, invites you into a calm pause with a breathing guide, a quote and your to-do list.

How it works
One small pause. Then back to it.
No dashboards, no streaks. Just a quiet reminder that you’re a person, not a process.

Good afternoon
Time to take a break
Stand up, stretch, and rest your eyes. Follow the circle: breathe in as it grows, out as it shrinks.
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
Still on your list
Settings
Everything in one small window.
Set it once and forget it. This is the real layout. Go ahead, change things: the pop-up above follows along.

Small, and made to stay out of your way.
Breathe with the circle
Breathe in as it grows, out as it shrinks. A few slow breaths go a long way.
See what’s left
Your remaining to-dos show in the pop-up, so you know where to pick up when you come back.
Snooze, skip or break
Start a timed break with a soft chime at the end, snooze it, or skip this one.

Where you want it
Show the pop-up in the corner or the middle, let it close itself, and have Breather start with Windows.
Private by design
Nothing leaves your computer.
Breather is a small, self-contained Windows app. Your settings and to-dos live in one file on your PC, and the app never goes online.

Windows says “Unknown publisher”?
Breather isn’t code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen may warn you the first time you run it. Click More info, then Run anyway. Breather installs itself for your account only (no admin rights needed) and adds Start menu and desktop shortcuts.
