Meet TouchGrass

TouchGrass helps Mac users take breaks without interrupting meetings, recordings, or video playback. It adjusts reminders around activity and counts time spent away from the computer toward your next break, so stepping out for coffee does not immediately trigger another interruption when you return. You can customize break lengths, working hours, messages, wallpapers, and how firmly the app enforces a pause.

Alongside scheduled breaks, it offers reminders for blinking, posture, and typing strain. Processing stays on the Mac, and meeting detection uses local audio-session information without microphone access or Accessibility permission. The app works offline apart from license and update checks, supports macOS 14 or later, and provides a trial before purchase.
