# Reminders for Mac: Water. Walk. Your own reminders.

> Mac reminders in the notch: drink water, take a walk, rest your eyes (20-20-20), fix your posture, plus your own reminders once, daily, weekdays or every N minutes.

Long days at a laptop are rough on your body. ctrlhq nudges you to drink, move and look away from the screen, without a separate app or a phone buzzing.

Health reminders count active time at your Mac, so if you've just been away for five minutes, that already counts as your walk.

## What you get

- **Health presets.** Water, a short walk, resting your eyes with the 20-20-20 rule, posture, stretching and breathing.
- **Your own.** Once at a set time, daily, on weekdays, or every so many minutes at your Mac.
- **Counts real screen time.** Time away from your Mac counts toward the break, so you're not nagged right after one.
- **In the notch, not in your face.** Reminders appear as a banner under the notch. Mark done or snooze in one click.

## FAQ

### Do reminders use notifications?

No. They show in the notch, so they never pile up in Notification Center.
