Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Praveen, and this is Mochi, a tiny hero for your Mac. I kept ignoring every reminder app I installed. A notification that says "drink water" is easy to swipe away. A small genie holding up a glass of water, waiting for you to drink with him, is not. So I built one. What Mochi does: 💧 Water, stretch, eye-rest, posture and walk reminders, plus your own. He acts out each break with you, then gets out of the way. ⏱ Gentle time awareness, only for the apps you choose ("45 minutes in Safari. Still what you came here for?"). Never websites, tabs or what you watch. 🤫 He steps aside during calls (mic or camera on), presentations and fullscreen, and his window never steals your clicks. 🎨 Seven capes, little moments (yawns, a sneeze, the odd twirl), short hellos above his head and a tornado entrance. It's a native Mac app (Swift, Core Animation) that averages 0.12% CPU on a MacBook Air. There's no account, it works offline, and nothing about what you do leaves your Mac. Try everything free for 7 days, no card. If you'd like to keep him, it's $12.99 once, yours for life, with no subscription and a 14-day money-back guarantee. I'd love to hear what you think, especially which reminder you'd add next and which cape you picked. 🧞
