Hello, I was looking for software that would automatically remind me to take a break from the computer every so often. It needs to be automatic and pop up over video games. Idk if anyone had any suggestions?

Windows has this built in but I forget what it's called. It even integrates with Spotify.

Wait, does the Spotify integration pause the music so you take the break? Or put music on for “break time”? Because the latter would be really good for motivating me to get up and get a few small tasks done.

That's a good question, I haven't actually used the Spotify integration, just seen that it's an option. I know it is more to set time for focus with automatic breaks and return to focus times.

Setting different playlists for focus and break would also be really cool honestly.
