SuperMoo for Mac lives in your menu bar with a friendly cartoon cow named Moo, ticks down to your next movement break, and gently takes over your screen when it's time. Sixty seconds. One stretch. Back to work.
SuperMoo for Mac is a native macOS menu bar app. It does not open a window. It does not bounce in your dock. It does not send you to a webpage. It lives in your menu bar, watches the clock, and reminds you to move every hour or two during your work hours.
Click the little Moo in your menu bar and you get a small popover: how long until the next nudge, how many moves you've logged today, your current streak. Click "log a move" and the popover closes. That's the whole interaction. Twenty seconds of attention, max.
When the timer hits zero, SuperMoo gently takes over your screen with a full-screen prompt to do one small movement. You pick from desk stretches, posture resets, brief walks, on-the-go moves, or rest-day options. One sixty-second movement. Back to work.
A small Moo icon next to your wifi and clock. No window. No dock bounce. No tab to forget about. Click it any time to see the next move.
When it's time to move, your whole screen becomes a gentle full-screen prompt. Pick a move, do it, dismiss. The takeover only fires during your work hours.
Miss too many movement breaks and Dracu-Moo shows up in your menu bar with a cape. The cow gets steadily more menacing. Tap the Moo and Dracu-Moo loses a chalkboard line.
Set your work hours once. Moo only nudges between those hours. After hours, Moo clocks out. So do you.
Moo starts when your Mac starts. One toggle in Settings. Always there, never in the way.
Pause Moo on your iPhone and Moo on your Mac quiets too. Resume on either, both wake up. One purchase unlocks all platforms.
Most movement reminder tools are either websites you forget to keep open or phone apps you dismiss without thinking. A menu bar app on macOS sits next to your wifi icon all day. You can't accidentally close it. It outlasts your focus sessions, your browser crashes, your reboots.
That's why SuperMoo for Mac is built as a native macOS menu bar utility rather than another browser extension or Electron app. Lighter weight. Native screen takeover. Real launch-at-login. Lives where your eyes already go for the time.
