Dejal Time Out: Prevent Computer Strain with Break Reminders

Dejal Time Out is a macOS application designed to help users avoid computer-related strain by gently reminding them to take regular breaks. It offers customizable 'Normal' and 'Micro' breaks, allowing users to set durations and intervals, and even configure breaks to count down when they step away from their computer.

Time Out enhances breaks with visually appealing themes, including local HTML, websites, YouTube videos, text, and images, with options to create custom themes. It also supports performing actions before, during, or after breaks, such as playing music or running scripts, and includes an 'Activity' feature to track break and app usage patterns.
