GoToBed

A gentle, hard-to-ignore — but never trapping — full-screen nudge at the times you choose. Built for bedtime.

Download for macOS

Universal (Apple Silicon & Intel) · macOS 13+ · free & open source

10:30
Time to wind down. Go to bed.
Screens off, lights low.

Multiple schedules

Per-day times, each with its own message, colors, and dismissal.

Soft, not a lock

Esc always dismisses. Cmd-Tab and force-quit never blocked.

Sleep-aware

Skips times missed while your Mac slept — never replays them.

Fully offline

No network, no telemetry, no accounts. Your schedules stay on your Mac.
