Stretch

For Windows · local only

A small nudge,
every thirty minutes.

Stretch lives in your system tray and invites you to unfold for one minute every so often. It knows when you're presenting, idle, or off the clock — and it stays quiet then. No accounts. No telemetry. Just you and your spine.

Works on Windows 10 and 11. macOS & Linux builds on the roadmap.

I

It waits.

The app sits in your system tray. No dock icon. No window on your screen. It counts the minutes between reminders — nothing else.

II

It dims the room.

When it's time, your screen softens and a single card appears at the center: one stretch, one minute, one line of instruction. Line-art figure shows the movement.

III

It lets you go.

Enter to dismiss, Esc to snooze, S to skip. Click outside the card — also a snooze. It never holds you hostage.

Not one more thing to manage

Stretch is quiet by default.

Reminders are paused during your quiet hours (6 PM to 9 AM, out of the box), while Windows Focus Assist is on, when you're presenting full-screen, and when you've stepped away from the keyboard. Nothing to configure — though you can, if you want to.

  • Quiet hours, set once.
  • Skips full-screen apps & Focus Assist.
  • Auto-snoozes after 10 minutes idle.
  • No sound unless you turn it on.

Your data stays on your machine.

Stretch has no server. It does not phone home, load remote scripts, fetch fonts at runtime, collect anonymous analytics, or include a crash reporter. Your settings and streak live in a single JSON file inside %APPDATA%/Stretch/.
