Why presence beats a timer

Most break reminders just use a stopwatch. Go for coffee and they keep counting. Posturion uses the webcam to notice when you actually leave and resets the sit timer, so reminders match reality.

FAQ

How is this different from a simple timer?

Posturion uses the webcam to detect presence. If you step away, the sit timer resets — reminders match your real sit time.

Can I change the interval?

Yes. Default is 50 minutes; you can change it to any interval that fits your rhythm.

What does the reminder sound like?

A short, friendly spoken phrase in your macOS language. Or a gentle chime if you prefer.

Does it need the internet?

No — presence detection is on-device via Apple Vision.

Stand up more. Stretch more.

Free. macOS 14+. Apple Silicon or Intel.
