Works really well; actually free
This is one of those rare apps where the free version actually works perfectly on its own. You can leave them a tip to unlock all the different alert sounds, but that’s all you’re missing out on. There are no ads in either version, which is amazing.
Partially because of that, this is also the first app I’ve ever paid for an in-app purchase on. It was mainly because this app is perfect for my needs and they deserve it, but I also appreciate their respectful business model. I even wrote them an email with an improvement suggestion one time, and they actually responded. Seems like that’s rare these days.

So helpful!
Brilliant yet simple app to help keep you active. It is too easy to sit preoccupied with something and so neglect our bodies. This easy to use app can be personalised to suit your needs. Glad I downloaded!
This app saved my life!
Staring at screens is harmful when done uninterrupted for hours. This app allows you to maximize your time in front of a computer or phone, minimizing risks to your health, and Increasing productivity by breaking the monotony and getting your blood moving :-)
PS I just reread this and realize that it looks like I’m a spokes person for this app or something… It probably comes from my background in sales. Not affiliated with this company and I appreciate it existence greatly

Great little app
Changed rating to star thought there was a volume problem but not
Nicely thought out app that’s free try and use and I would encourage users to donate something. Sitting too much at work is a real problem so hats off Having an option to flash the screen as a quiet alert would be icing on cake

In love with this app
I found this app after my first encounter with sciatica problems. It is exactly what I needed! If I am deeply engrossed in something, I will sometimes just stand up and push my office chair away, sort of squat a little to avoid hunching over and go about my business. But generally I try to take a short walk to get water or just to the printer and back. I love how encouraging and non-intrusive this particular app is.

Love this app with my Apple Watch
I use this to help me with my back pain and to remind me to stand up every 20/30 minutes as mentioned by many articles/studies how important it is to stand.
Very Helpful App!!
I have a desk job and tend to forget to stand. I’ve started having lots of neck & back aches so I tried this app doing the $1.99 tip. It has lots of tones & color themes, choices for volume, times & location as well as days of the week. I love it, it has definitely helped remind me to Stand Up & Stretch which in turn has helped my aches & pains. They were instantly responsive when I couldn’t figure out something. It’s a great app & does what it states & has responsive email support.

Future reference
This app is working well for me so far, but here’s a few things I’ve noticed and came up with to improve the app:
+ app didn’t play a buzzer when phone was on vibrate - will test again on next interval
+ there should be a feature that allows you to pause / cancel a sitting period in case you are already standing. Kind of pointless standing and then coming back just to get a notification two minutes later telling you to stand again
Other than that, app is great and running smoothly

Immensely Helpful, low key, beautifully designed
Over several years, STAND UP has served me well to remind me to take a break, breathe, stretch, go outside to get fresh air and sunshine on a regular basis — and return to the original task. This app also works to schedule just about anything that you want to do on a regular basis, where you need a gentle nudge. It is beautifully designed.
I love the feature which allows setting the alarm or reminder to only go off at a particular location. For instance, I can pick goofy, delightful alarms such as the “typing ducks” and be sure they never go off at a business meeting, or a funeral.
What I originally thought was a useful but limited app, has proven itself to be flexible, well-balanced, and thoughtfully designed.
STAND UP is a very simple, low-key app, and I love it!

Works ok for the price
I like how it reminds you every hour to get up but a couple of things bother me.
1 -you can’t tell it at what time to set reminders. For example I have it set to remind me from 9 to 8. I would like to be reminded on the hour. It reminds me at about 17 minutes after the hour and I can’t change it.
2 - I paid extra to have additional sounds to choose from. (Not that I paid that much). There are quite a few choices but they are either 1 or 2 seconds long or 30 seconds long. Nothing in between. I’m hard of hearing and often miss the short ones but the long ones are really a bit annoying. It would be good to be able to set the length of time the sound plays or at least have a couple of options that are 10 or 15 seconds long.
Otherwise it’s fine.
