An important aspect when working in front of your computer for many hours is to take occasional breaks at a certain interval of time. BreakTime is a program for Mac that lets you know whenever it's time to remove yourself from the PC and have a time off from your current task.

By clicking on its icon from the menu bar you can learn how much time you have left until your work break. You can configure the timer settings by going to its Preferences menu and selecting the length of the pauses and the work time.

An advantage of this application is the fact that it brings the "Enforce break" option. By enabling this feature, the tool will prevent you from clicking the Done button too early or from continuing your work on the PC during your break time.

Another thing I like about this program is that if offers a very easy way to reschedule breaks and disable the timer whenever you feel it is necessary.

To sum things up, this application proves to be a suitable solution for remembering when it's time to make a break from work. The program is very simple to use, brings easy to configure time off settings, and uses a small amount of CPU resources. Plus, you don't have to pay much to use it.
