Power schedules
Shut down or sleep the computer on selected weekdays or a one-time date.
ChainBreaker schedules computer shutdown or sleep and automatic monitor settings. Rules are stored locally and executed in the background.

These captures come from the real desktop application and change with your selected language.

Time, weekdays, action and advance notification.
The scope matches the current application and its real screens.
Shut down or sleep the computer on selected weekdays or a one-time date.
Change brightness, grayscale and blue light filtering automatically.
Schedules are kept in a local SQLite database. Your data remains yours alone—the app never shares it with anyone.
The blue light filter reduces the screen’s blue component, warms the image and helps reduce eye strain during evening computer use.
Grayscale puts less strain on the dopamine reward system: it reduces the appeal of colorful stimuli and discourages empty, isolated consumption. It becomes easier to step away from the screen and experience the real world more fully.
A calmer screen can help you end the session, do something else, go to bed earlier and give yourself a chance at longer, fuller sleep.

We have a limited amount of free will that renews each day. Let us preserve it by automating the need to fight ourselves every day. Let us give ourselves the chance to spend it on what comes next.
01
Freedom is, in truth, the choice of our own bonds — the ones that leave us the strength and time to live as we genuinely want.
02
Time is a currency that is forever running out. There is no way to earn more of it. So do not let it be taken from you unnoticed. Let us make sure you spend this resource on exactly what you want. As consciously as you want.
