OP mentions they’re not a fan of smart watches, but in case you don’t mind wearing one, you can get a pretty good setup with one. I have an Apple Watch and use the Repeat Timer app (pro version) [0], which lets me create a timer that goes off every 20 minutes, and which has a rest interval of 20 seconds before resuming the main timer, which lets me follow the 20/20/20 rule just by paying attention to the vibrations on my watch. You have to remember to turn it on every day, so I use the Reminders app to do that every weekday morning. Overall, I find myself at the end of the day with noticeably less eyestrain.

- mandeepj 4y agoWhy you are recommending a smartwatch just for a repeat timer? Any smartphone can do (just start the timer again or download an app (I searched there are plenty) or a desktop app
- tehnub 4y agoI meant my post more for people who already had a smartwatch, I think. That being said, I prefer the smartwatch experience. Otherwise you have to keep your phone either in your eyesight to see a notification, or you have to have it in your pocket for a vibration. Smartwatch works a little easier IMO.
