Android 8+ Users please read:
On Devices running Android 8 and higher you'll receive a notification telling you the 20 20 20 App is draining the battery in the background.
This is a default notification which is shown for every app using a background service even if it isn't using much power at all. The 20 20 20 service is only counting down 20 minutes as soon as its started. This doesn't require much power or cpu capacity. To verify this claim your self, you can check the Battery statistics after a day of running the 20 20 20 app.

Ratings and reviews

Inconsistent which makes me sad. The concept of the app is excellent, and I really do appreciate the app when it does work properly, however I find it stops working after every once in a while. I have enabled all the permissions and services for the app, and I always start the service using the orange button inside the app as well as never force stop or end the service for the app, but it always eventually stops reminding me after a few cycles. I wish it was more consistent by working 100%.

Love it. So many similar apps just have a 20-minute timer, which continues counting down (often in an obnoxious ever-present notification) and continue counting even if your phone is turned off! This is the first app I've found that resets the 20 minutes if you turn off your phone screen. This makes sense because if your screen is off, you're obviously already taking a break from it! The one improvement I'd like to see would be an option to blacklist certain apps, so that the timer is paused (or at least notifications hidden) when that app is on-screen, and/or when an app is in full-screen immersive mode. Things like Waze, Google Maps, etc. or full-screen movies shouldn't be interrupted by eye breaks. I wrote an email to the developer and they responded very quickly that they'd like to include these ideas in the next version of the app!

Nice app, plz add features like default timing like from morning to night so app won't work during sleeping time. custom timing like 15 minutes or 35 minutes depending on the field of vision, for different people in different room size or area, so custom timing will be helpful. overall Nice app, thank you.
