Core Features

Prevent Idle Status
Helps reduce away or idle triggers during active work sessions, including workflows where tools like Teams or Slack may otherwise switch status too quickly.

Quick Start Timers
Start instantly with preset durations like 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, or longer sessions.

Auto-Stop
Set a limit so NeverAFK stops automatically after your chosen time. Useful when you want control without forgetting it is running.

Teams / Slack Nudge
Optional activity support for work setups where you want to avoid unnecessary idle detection during desk-based tasks.

Download Guard
Keep your system awake while downloads are running so large files are less likely to be interrupted by sleep or inactivity.

Work Schedule

Theme & Power Preferences
Choose the look and behavior that fit your setup, including display-based and system-aware options.
