I am the maker of Away From Keyboard (AFK). Away From Keyboard is an app that reduces eye strain with reminders to take a break.<p>AFK tracks movements on the mouse &amp; keystrokes on the keyboard. After a certain interval, it notifies you to take a break &amp; tells you to do some other activity to reduce eye strain. It takes care of your eyes for you without getting in the way.<p>I was inspired by Aware but I needed more features which is why I built Away From Keyboard (AFK). Also it was a great way to learn some Swift.<p>This app has helped me immensely &amp; my eyes &amp; head are more relaxed now thanks to AFK. Happy to answer any questions you have :)

What do mouse and keystrokes have to do with eyestrain, though? I guess it could be an indicator on how active you are using your computer, but I could imagine plenty activities that involve using your computer without actually interacting with it.
