Balance Mode
Balance your day with periods of uptime and downtime. Set when you work and when you rest, and let the dashboard help you keep the rhythm.
A healthier daily rhythm
Pick the hours you want to focus and the hours you want to step back. The dashboard reflects that rhythm visually every time you open a new tab, so you can see at a glance where you are in your day and whether you are on or off the clock.
- Choose start and end times for uptime (work) and downtime (rest)
- Visual timeline shows the full day at a glance
- Optional gentle reminders when you transition between modes
- Switch it off entirely if you prefer no schedule
Your day
Uptime 09:00 — 18:00
How it works
Set your hours once
Choose your start and end times in settings. Balance mode remembers them and shows the rhythm on every new tab from then on.
Stays in your browser
Your schedule is saved locally with the rest of your dashboard preferences. Nothing about your work hours leaves your device unless you sign in to sync.
Made for these moments
Remote workers
When your office is your kitchen, visible work-hour boundaries help you stop at the actual stop time.
Parents on hybrid schedules
Carve out childcare hours as downtime so the dashboard mirrors what your day actually looks like.
Creative-block recovery
If you keep working through fatigue, a visual that says "you are well past uptime" is a gentle nudge to close the laptop.
Quick tips
- Start with generous downtime hours — it is easier to shrink them later than to add them after burnout.
- Pair balance mode with countdown timers for end-of-day milestones (gym, dinner, walk).
