Reminders that wait until you're ready.
Persistent color glows appear at the edge of your screen to remind you to hydrate, stretch, or look away. They stay visible until you're ready — no toast that vanishes before you notice.
Windows 10+ · macOS · Linux
No banners. No badges. Just a gentle glow that waits for you.
Glows persist at the screen edge until you dismiss them — no toast that disappears before you act.
Survives laptop suspend. Missed reminders are caught within 30 seconds of waking up.
Choose any edge, color, size, opacity, and pulse animation per reminder.
Everything runs locally. No cloud sync, no analytics, no account needed.
"Laimen" is a phonetic spelling of limen — Latin for "threshold." In psychology, the limen is the smallest change in a stimulus you can perceive: barely noticeable, but enough to register. That's exactly what the app aims for — a soft glow at the edge of your screen that sits right at the threshold of attention, present without demanding it.

Windows 10+ (64-bit), macOS (universal), and Linux (deb, AppImage, rpm) are all supported. Builds are currently unsigned on all platforms, so the OS will warn on first launch — pick your platform below to get past those prompts.
Laimen's Windows MSI isn't code-signed yet (a code-signing certificate is on the roadmap), so SmartScreen treats it as an unrecognized publisher. The download itself is fine — it comes straight from this site, served from the latest GitHub Release.
To run it anyway:
If your browser refuses to download the MSI at all, click the chevron next to the warning and pick Keep / Keep anyway.
The macOS DMG isn't notarized yet (Apple Developer signing is on the roadmap), so Gatekeeper blocks it on first launch. The easiest workaround:
On macOS Sonoma and later the right-click trick may no longer be enough. In that case open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll to the bottom, and click Open Anyway next to the Laimen entry.
If macOS still refuses with a "damaged" message (common when Safari sets the quarantine flag on the DMG), strip the quarantine attribute from a terminal:
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Laimen.appLinux builds are unsigned and don't ship through a software center, so a couple of small steps are usually needed.
AppImage — mark it executable before running:
chmod +x Laimen-*.AppImage
./Laimen-*.AppImageIf it exits silently, Laimen needs a WebKitGTK runtime. On Debian/Ubuntu:
sudo apt install libwebkit2gtk-4.1-0 libayatana-appindicator3-1On Fedora: sudo dnf install webkit2gtk4.1 libappindicator-gtk3. On Arch: sudo pacman -S webkit2gtk-4.1 libappindicator-gtk3.
.deb / .rpm — install with your package manager so dependencies are resolved automatically:
sudo apt install ./laimen_*_amd64.deb
# or
sudo dnf install ./laimen-*.x86_64.rpmThe tray icon needs an AppIndicator-compatible status area. On GNOME, install the AppIndicator and KStatusNotifierItem Support extension; on KDE/XFCE/Cinnamon it works out of the box.
Open Laimen's settings window and enable Start at login. That registers Laimen with the OS so it launches into the system tray on each boot. If autostart isn't taking effect, add it manually:
Windows — press Win + R, type shell:startup, and press Enter. Drop a shortcut to Laimen.exe into that folder. You can also check Task Manager → Startup apps and make sure Laimen is enabled.
macOS — open System Settings → General → Login Items & Extensions and add Laimen under "Open at Login." If it's listed but not launching, remove it and re-add it with the toggle in Laimen's settings to refresh the macOS login-item registration.
Linux — most desktops respect the XDG autostart entry that Laimen writes when "Start at login" is on. If yours doesn't, drop a file at ~/.config/autostart/laimen.desktop:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Laimen
Exec=laimen
X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=trueFor AppImage installs, replace Exec=laimen with the absolute path to your AppImage.
Set up your first reminder in under a minute.
