Your mushroom can become a sphere of sparkling water that sloshes when you drag it, for days when a pet on the desk is one question too many. Switch back any time, your color is remembered. https://www.getmushroom.app/ Alexander Slatina Thu, 03 Sep 2026 15:29:24 +0000 https://dev.to/alexander_slatina/settings-general-has-a-new-look-your-mushroom-can-become-a-sphere-of-sparkling-water-that-sloshes-6e5 https://dev.to/alexander_slatina/settings-general-has-a-new-look-your-mushroom-can-become-a-sphere-of-sparkling-water-that-sloshes-6e5 <div class="crayons-card c-embed text-styles text-styles--secondary"> <div class="c-embed__content"> <div class="c-embed__body flex items-center justify-between"> <a href="https://www.getmushroom.app/" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="c-link fw-bold flex items-center"> <span class="mr-2">getmushroom.app</span> </a> </div> </div> </div> You dismiss reminders.

It can tell when you are actually at the desk, so it nudges you to drink, move and rest your eyes at the moments that help, and stays quiet when they would not.</p> <p><strong>Made for people who sit at a Mac for hours.</strong> Developers, designers, writers, students, anyone whose focus is the problem and the job at the same time.</p> <p>Mushroom can do lots of things: <a href="https://www.getmushroom.app/features" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://www.getmushroom.app/features</a><br> Pricing: <a href="https://www.getmushroom.app/pricing" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://www.getmushroom.app/pricing</a></p> <p>If you've seen Mushroom elsewhere, please let me know where. If you miss a feature, please tell me. I'm open for feedback and suggestions. </p> <p>Personal comment: I have created Mushroom because I wanted a very simple way to set up a quick reminder. You just type what and when in one sentence, and your reminder is set. Over the course of weeks, it evolved into a whole set of features. </p> <p>I'd like to thank Michael K. Graves for helping with ideas and suggestions, and I'd like to thank Caz-Bee for providing the graphics.</p> <p>Thank you for giving my post attention.</p> productivity discuss showdev buildinpublic
