Simple, does what it’s designed to do, works with El Capitan
No refinements* with this version, but at least we know the developer is supporting it.
The design is good for setting both a countdown alarm to get up and stretch for a duration and for up to eight water break time alarms. All user customizable.
The sounds are beautiful, the lighting effect for alerts is nice, and the animation gets in the way enough to really get your attention without being annoying; and a simple click to ignore it if you want.
* I don’t think this app needs more features—the developer specializes in making simple solutions for common little problems— but there is some room for improvement of the app design: 1) the main timer can only be set with a slider control that doesn’t snap to common durations, with no value entry box, 2) the 8 water break alarms are absolute, meaning if you ignore one the interval to the next one will be shorter, 3) there’s no easy pause/resume (which should be to click on the big useless water glass image, 4) maybe animate the water level in that glass, just for fun, and animate the menu bar icon to show remaining time (water in the glass)? It’s better than OK; it’s a good app. But it’s not yet great:)
