The setting wizard will guide you through the setup to set the duration of your intervals. You can also pause or skip to the next break directly from the menu. Setting up Stretchly is easy with a wizard you can open from right click context menu from the icon on the taskbar. I have set a 4 minute break for every 1 hour. This depends on how long you are continuously working. Breaks is a longer break with a longer duration between breaks. It is recommended to take short breaks every 10-20 minutes of 20 seconds to 1 minutes. Microbreak is a short break after a short duration interval. User can set these intervals for two type of breaks namely micro breaks and breaks. Idle time isn’t recorded against the intervals. Stretchly automatically records your usage with mouse and keyboard activities. Activities like take a glass of water, look away from the computer and others will encourage you to spend your breaks productively. On breaks, you are prompted with random activities you can do. Stretchly will notify you to take breaks in intervals you feel comfortable with so you can perform some other tasks to reduce strain from consistent posture and exposure to screen. Workrave development has been down since 2013 making stretchly an updated alternative.
