Stand Up! The Work Break Timer User Reviews

Top reviews

Just a good app for a good reason

This is a straightforward app. It sets a reminder for your chosen duration and simply tells you to stand up and move around. If you’re sitting, get up. If you’re standing already, ignore it. Want to limit the reminders to when you’re in your office? They thought of that, and you can enable location services. Like blue better than green? Go ahead and change that. Do you want to see a different message to get you standing? You can change it.

Don’t want the ads? Great! They don’t pester you with ads anyway.

Doesn’t know when I’m up

Wish there was a way it could tell when I was up- I sometimes just sit down and it tells me to get up.

Being the best I can be

Simple and easy to use free reminder app. I have it set to remind me to get up and move for my health every 45minutes. I can set the reminder to happen at any frequency, any day(s) for any duration. I set mine for 7 days a week to go off every 45 minutes from 10am to 9pm. I have chronic illness and my activity has gone from very active to sedentary for over 2 yrs now. Standing and walking are big challenges. By the end of the day, just standing up for 1 minute is hard. This is just the app I was looking for and it’s helping me get stronger and stay healthy by positively encouraging regular movement. 1% better everyday is my goal now.

I find this app very beneficial

I have been using this for a few years now and it is so helpful to have a reminder. I don’t always stand but it is so user friendly and not intrusive.

Very useful app

I like the function keep reminding me do so stand up

Prompts me even when I’m standing!

This app seemed like a good idea, but it is constantly prompting me to stand when I am already standing. Sometimes I even get pinged when I am out on a walk or playing pickleball! If the Apple stand app on the watch can tell when I’m standing, why can’t your app?? I would use the Apple app except I cannot configure the interval times. It only prompts once an hour. Your app allows me to Configure the interval times, button can’t tell when I’m already up and drives me crazy!! Unfortunately, I am going to have to uninstall this app until that feature is implemented.

Perfect!

Many stand timers are just that: timers. They help you see if you have been standing for a certain duration. A clock can be set with alarms at a fixed clock time daily. What you need fir a standing desk is a combination that’s easy to use.

This is it! StandUp! combines a recurring alarm with a timer, and reporting functionality. You can set it to remind you every hour, and don’t have to create alarms for each individual hour. it reminds you when to stand and when to sit, and it allows you to change the duration of standing. Then tells you how well you’ve been doing.

Great job!

Easy interface, chime doesn’t work

I downloaded this app on doctor’s orders to stand up every 15 minutes at my desk and stretch. It’s been a huge help in pain relief. This app is very easy to set up and Program to go off at specific intervals. Unfortunately, I have the same problem as several other users indicate in the reviews. After the first day of use, the sound function no longer works. It’s just a silent pop-up on my phone. So unless I’m staring at my phone all the time, which I don’t, the app is pretty useless to remind me to stand up. I hope this is a simple bug that will be fixed soon!

Does what you want it doesn’t get in your way

After downloading many apps very pleased with this one. I’m recovering from surgery which requires I get up every 40 minutes or so to help with circulation. Was able to easily set interval reminders something that apple’s app can’t do The app does exactly what you need with minimal fuss- clear interface, and works well. No intrusive ads, no nagging for upgrades makes me want to support a company. Great job thank you!

Great basic reminder

Simple interface and functionality which is exactly what I need. I set the time interval, the hours of my working day, and the days of the week. Then a simple ping reminds me to stand up from my desk. I don’t want anything more complicated than that.
