Health Reminder Chrome Extension — Drink Water, Stand Up & Eye Break
What It Does
OneBuddy's health reminder system keeps you physically well during long browsing sessions by delivering three types of customizable alerts right in your Chrome side panel. Set up water intake reminders to stay hydrated, stand-up alerts to combat sedentary work, and 20-20-20 eye break notifications to protect your vision from screen strain. Each reminder type supports three flexible scheduling modes — interval-based, fixed-time, and date-range — giving you full control over when and how often alerts appear. You can also configure website exclusion lists so reminders automatically pause on specific sites like video conferencing apps or streaming platforms. Beautiful in-page notifications appear directly within your browser without interrupting your OS-level workflow.
Why It's Better Than Standalone Extensions
Standalone break reminder extensions like Stretchly or Break Timer only handle one type of reminder and add another icon to your extension bar. OneBuddy gives you water, standing, and eye break reminders in one unified Chrome side panel, plus integrates with your Pomodoro timer so health breaks align naturally with work intervals. By consolidating health reminders with 13 other tools, you save browser memory and reduce your total extension count significantly. Stretchly requires a separate desktop app; Break Timer lacks customization. OneBuddy does it all for free without requiring a separate download or account signup.
