Description
iCare helps you follow the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. It's the simplest way to reduce eye strain from screens.
WHY THE 20-20-20 RULE?
Eye doctors recommend this rule to reduce digital eye strain. The problem isn't knowing about it — it's remembering to do it. iCare handles that for you.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Get a gentle reminder every 20 minutes
2. Tap once to start the break
3. Look at something in the distance for 20 seconds
4. Done. The next reminder is scheduled automatically.
No menus to navigate. No complicated workflows. One tap and you're done.
APPLE WATCH — THE BEST WAY TO USE IT
A subtle haptic tap on your wrist is the perfect reminder. You don't need to pull out your phone, and you won't miss it. Start the countdown right from your watch.
Works great without Apple Watch too. iPhone notifications are fully supported.
DESIGNED TO BE QUIET
Most reminder apps are too loud and aggressive. iCare is quiet by default:
• Haptics on, sound off
• Clean, minimal interface
• No streaks, badges, or gamification
• No wellness bloat — just one simple habit
CUSTOMIZE YOUR SCHEDULE
• Set your own reminder interval
• Choose your break duration
• Define working hours so you're not disturbed outside of them
• Filter by weekdays
• Integrates with Focus modes — pause or adjust reminders automatically
COMPLETELY FREE
No subscriptions. No paywalls. No ads. The full app is free, including Apple Watch support.
PERFECT FOR
• Office workers and remote workers
• Developers and designers
• Students
• Gamers
• Anyone who spends hours looking at screens
Take care of your eyes. It only takes 20 seconds.
