FAQ
Common questions about how Nicti behaves, what it sees, and how it protects your privacy.
Will reminders interrupt me during meetings?
No. Nicti detects active calls locally and pauses reminders automatically. You can also turn on Do Not Disturb yourself at any time.
Does Nicti run in the background?
Yes. Nicti stays out of the way and only appears when it is time for a gentle reminder, then gets out of your way again.
Can I customize the reminders?
You can change the cue style, screen position, size, and how often blink and break reminders appear, and preview any reminder before waiting for the timer.
Can I snooze or skip a break?
Yes, you can snooze a reminder. Strict mode is optional and keeps selected breaks active until you complete them, for times when you want to commit.
What data does Nicti collect?
The desktop app runs offline and collects nothing by default. Meeting detection stays on your device. The website uses only privacy-respecting analytics if you allow it.
Do I need an account or the internet?
No sign-up and no connection are required. Nicti only needs the network to check for and download updates.
Nicti does not replace medical advice.
