Viraam™ Digital Wellness & Eye Care App for Mac

What is Viraam?

Viraam is a context-aware wellness break reminder app for Mac that helps you take the right break at the right time. It reminds you to rest your eyes on the 20-20-20 rule, stretch, drink water, walk, and take a mindful pause.

Viraam respects your focus — reminders wait out meetings, calls, and full-screen video by default, or stay quietly visible instead if you prefer. And its audio-guided eye exercises let you rest your eyes without looking at the screen.

How easy is it to set up Viraam?

Download, open, choose a template — Minimal, Balanced, or Frequent — and Viraam is by your side. Your wellness companion, ready in under 30 seconds. Fine-tune timings, styles, and break types anytime.

How much does Viraam cost?

Viraam offers three plans: $2.99/month, $19.99/year (save 44%), or $49.99 lifetime (pay once, own forever). Try it free for 14 days, no credit card needed.

All plans include every feature — no tiers, no feature gating. Choose what works for your budget.

How do I subscribe to Viraam?

Two ways: tap Subscribe from within the app and choose your plan — that's the easiest. Or download from the Mac App Store and subscribe after your 14-day trial. All payments are processed securely by Apple.

Will Viraam interrupt me during meetings or videos?

By default, no — Viraam pauses breaks when it detects a video call or full-screen video. The first time it happens, it asks how you'd like that handled: pause until the meeting or video ends, pause for 30 minutes, or keep breaks visible in the Subtle style instead of pausing. Choose to remember your preference and it's automatic from then on. Cursor nudges are independent and keep their own settings.

What are Viraam's notification styles?

Viraam has three. Subtle shows a quiet animation near the menu bar with nothing to dismiss. Gentle shows a small toast with a wellness message or exercise suggestion. Immersive takes over the screen for a full pause with calming backdrops and your choice of sound. You can switch between them at any time, and Focus Filters can apply a different style per macOS Focus mode.

Can I use Viraam silently in a café or shared office?

Yes, using two controls. Quiet Mode switches every break reminder to a soft visual cue with one tap — no full-screen takeover — so nothing takes over your screen in a café, office or shared space. Sound is handled separately: break chimes keep playing until you switch off Reminder Sounds. For a fully silent setup, use both. They're deliberately independent, so you can also keep the chimes while only the visuals change.

Does Viraam access my calendar?

Only if you enable calendar integration for Focus Pomodoro. Viraam requests read-only access to your calendar events to display what task you're working on during focus sessions. This data is processed locally on your Mac and never sent to our servers.

Is my data private?

Yes. Your data stays on your Mac. Viraam doesn't send any analytics, telemetry, or usage data to external servers. We don't track you, period.

Screen Sharing Privacy: Break reminders are automatically excluded from screenshots, screen recordings, and screen sharing. When you're presenting on Zoom or sharing your screen, attendees won't see your break notifications - your wellness stays private.

Can I customize the break timings?

Yes. Every break type can be toggled on or off with its own interval, from minutes to hours. You can also choose the notification style — Subtle, Gentle, or Immersive — set your accent colour, pick break sounds or silence them, and use Working Hours so reminders only fire while you're actually working.

How does Smart Break Grouping work?

Viraam intelligently combines overlapping breaks into a single pause. Instead of multiple interruptions, you get one grouped break covering everything you need. Fewer pings, same wellness coverage.

Does Viraam track my progress?

Yes. Visual habit-tracking calendar shows your break patterns, streaks, and perfect day celebrations. 12-month trends and insights included.

What macOS version do I need?

Viraam requires macOS 14.0 (Sonoma) or later. The app is a lightweight native Swift application (~12MB) and works on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.

Does Viraam work with multiple monitors?

Yes. Viraam detects your multi-monitor setup and displays break reminders on your primary display. Cursor-following nudges track your cursor across all connected displays seamlessly.

What are audio-guided eye exercises?

Two gentle exercises for tired eyes — each begins with a brief set of instructions, then soft sound cues guide you through the rest. Together they take just 2.5 minutes, a moment of calm in your day.

What can I automate with Shortcuts?

Viraam includes 8 Shortcuts actions — start or skip a break, toggle pause, switch plans, and more. Build your own automations or trigger wellness routines from other apps and widgets.

What are Focus Filters?

Different Focus modes, different wellness settings. Choose between pause, subtle, gentle, or immersive notification styles — and optionally enable blink and posture nudges. Viraam adapts automatically when you switch Focus modes.

What is the refund policy?

All purchases are processed through the Mac App Store, and refunds are handled by Apple. If you're not satisfied, you can request a refund at reportaproblem.apple.com.
