Questions, answered

Questions about the Mac eye exercise app.

Short answers about the guided eye exercises, the 20-20-20 reminder rhythm, privacy, and which Macs are supported.

What does Eye Yoga Exercises for Strain do?

It places a small eye in your Mac menu bar. When your chosen interval is complete, the eye turns red. Click it to start the next suggested visual movement in a focused, dismissible window.

Can I choose an exercise from a catalog?

The public app keeps the flow intentionally simple and suggests the next movement when you click the menu-bar eye. The exercise gallery used during development is not part of the customer-facing app.

How long is each exercise?

You can choose 15, 30, 45, or 60 seconds in Settings. The default is 30 seconds, and you can close an exercise at any time.

How often can it remind me?

Reminder intervals can be set from 20 to 120 minutes in five-minute steps. The red menu-bar state is always available; system notifications are optional.

Does it run when I sign in?

Only if you enable Launch at Login in Settings. It is off for new users.

Does the app diagnose or treat eye strain?

No. Eye Yoga Exercises for Strain is a wellbeing and focus companion for brief visual pauses. It does not diagnose, treat, or prevent medical conditions and does not claim to improve eyesight.

Does it collect analytics or require an account?
