Tweny is a focus timer app for iOS that combines the Pomodoro technique with the 20-20-20 rule to reduce eye strain during long screen sessions. Designed for people who spend seven or more hours daily on screens, it enforces proper eye breaks at the end of each work interval. The app includes Live Activities, an Apple Watch companion, professional health tips, and gamification features like badges, streaks, and level progression to maintain user engagement while protecting vision.

In 2019, I experienced eye soreness and back pain for a while because I was constantly working long hours in front of my 16 inch Macbook without any rest. I decided to do something to change that. I’m not a fan of Apple Watch or smartbands. So the first thing I did was looking for some reminder software to remind me to take a break in the App Store, but none of them were smart enough for my needs.
