Description
Break Buddy reminds you to drink water, move, and rest your eyes during the workday — solo, or with your team. Since our first launch here, we rebuilt a big part of the product based on what the community told us: proper account recovery, international payments (not just LatAm), a real security pass, and a much smoother onboarding. Still built by one non-developer, one AI-assisted commit at a time.
