Move a little, every hour you sit. A battery drains on your new tab; when it's empty, Chrome locks until you take a short break.

About micro.breaks
Sitting all day in front of your computer?
micro.breaks helps you build regular movement breaks into your workday, at the office or at home, so you can stay energised, focused, and feel better in your body.
Your battery drains as you sit. When it's empty, it's time to move. Complete a five-minute mission to unlock Chrome and get back to work.
No more snoozed reminders. Just five minutes to move, recharge, and get back to work.
MAKE YOUR BREAKS HAPPEN
๐ See your sitting time add up. Your new tab shows a battery that drains as you sit, counting down to your next movement break.
๐ Your break can't be ignored. When it's time to move, Chrome keeps you on your break mission for five minutes, so you can't simply switch tabs and carry on working.
๐ถ Five-minute missions to get you moving. We suggest what to do during your day: take a walk, grab some water, climb the stairs, or follow a quick stretch video.
๐งฎ Stay accountable. You have to solve a few math challenges if you want to unlock Chrome instead of completing your five-minute break.

โฐ Set your break frequency, working hours, days, and lunch break.
