Tim quietly watches over your scrolling habits on YouTube, Instagram and Facebook — then gently reminds you to take a break, hydrate, and move your body.
Tim counts every second you spend on YouTube, Facebook or Instagram — even when you switch tabs. No shortcuts.
After 40 minutes, Tim shows a gentle full-screen card with a random health tip — right on the very page you're watching.
Pushups, water breaks, eye care, posture checks, walks, and more. Different every time so they never get stale.
All your data lives only in your browser's local storage. Tim never sends anything to any server — there is no server.
Click Tim's icon to see a warm, minimal dashboard showing how much time you've spent per platform today.
Built with Manifest V3 service workers — Tim runs in the background using virtually zero CPU or battery.

Every 40 minutes, a warm wellness card appears while you browse. Do a few pushups, then keep scrolling — guilt free.
