Catrace is a work-life balance utility developed by publisher lanxiuyun, designed to help users balance work and rest through break reminders, hydration check-ins, and agent notifications. The software runs in the background and observes the user's activity state, detecting only mouse and keyboard activity without capturing the screen or reading what the user is doing. When it determines that the user has been working continuously for too long, it prompts the user to stand up and take a break. The application supports two reminder modes: a notification mode that displays a floating notification card in the lower-right corner with options to postpone or skip the reminder along with a liquid-ball rest timer, and a full-screen reminder mode that allows customization of the background image, its fitting method, and the overlay opacity. Users can configure the working duration and the threshold used to determine rest time, and the software can also remind users to drink water at set intervals, only interrupting them while they are active. In addition, Catrace supports custom plugins and agent notifications, extending its functionality beyond the built-in reminder features. Falling within the health and productivity category of desktop utilities, it targets office workers and other users who spend extended periods at a computer and want a privacy-conscious tool for managing their sitting time and hydration habits. The current version is 26.9.8, and the catalog lists a total of 10 published versions, indicating an ongoing release history for the software.
