Locks your screen for a set amount of time, so you actually take that break.
Digital Detox is a small Windows app that locks the screen for a chosen duration, from 1 to 999 minutes.
The lock screen covers every monitor and shows a countdown; common shortcuts such as the Windows key and Alt+Tab are blocked, and the screen switches off gradually.
It unlocks by itself when the time is up, lives in the system tray and can start with Windows.
