About Time to Break: Break Reminder & 20-20-20 Eye Timer
Time to Break is a break reminder for Chrome built around the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
When the timer runs out, every open tab shows a break screen with a 20 second countdown and a tip for your eyes. When it ends, your tabs are exactly as you left them.
WHAT IT DOES
- An eye break reminder every 20 minutes, on all tabs at once
- A longer five minute break every fourth time, with tips to stand up and stretch
- Skip a break, or snooze it for 5 minutes
- Strict mode: breaks that cannot be skipped or snoozed
- Pauses while your screen is locked
- Optional sound and desktop notifications
- Statistics for today and the last 7 days, with CSV export
- Your own break title and tips
- English, Russian and Uzbek

No account, no analytics, no ads. The extension makes no network requests: your settings and statistics stay in your browser.
Every length can be changed: the work time, the short break, the long break, and how often the long break comes.
The 20-20-20 rule is general advice for comfort at a screen, not medical treatment. If your eyes hurt or your vision changes, see an eye doctor.
