Daily Water Reminder
Hello everyone! 👋
Introducing: Active Now 🟢 - a macOS app that keeps your Mac awake so you stay active on Teams, Slack, Discord & more.
It is not a normal presence app!
👉 Before Active Now:
1. Get marked as away while reading
2. Boss/client sends "are you there?"
3. Frantically move mouse
4. Lose focus on actual work
5. Repeat every 5 minutes
NOT TO MENTION: the anxiety of knowing you'll go "yellow" if you step away for coffee or take a proper thinking break... even though these activities often lead to our best work!
👉 After Active Now:
1. Click the menu bar icon
2. Stay active while you work (That's it! 💥)
3. Active Now will take care of EVERYTHING for you!
🎨 Intelligently prevents idle status so you stay green
⚖️ Smart detection pauses when you're actively using your computer
🔐 Works with your existing work schedule
⏰ Set it and forget it - no constant tweaking
✅ One-time purchase, no subscriptions!
All of this happens automatically, with ZERO effort from you!
⌨️ With a simple menu bar click, you can toggle it on/off in just a SECOND!
Everything is customizable, and the app will remember your preferences. You can set work hours, customize the activity intervals, and more.
Enough said, please go check it out 😊
