About

Sit less. Move more. You already know sitting all day isn't great for you, but willpower alone rarely breaks the habit. Recess makes movement the path of least resistance. Every so often, during the hours you choose, Recess asks you to stand up and do a short set of squats, counted automatically by your camera, entirely on your device. Then you're back, a little less sedentary than a minute ago. Recess is free. Squat breaks on your own rhythm, and this month's record, cost nothing. No card, nothing to start. It's built on a simple, research-backed idea: breaking up long stretches of sitting with brief, frequent movement does more for your energy, focus, and long-term health than a single workout can undo. How it works • Choose your break rhythm, and the hours and days it runs • When a break comes, stand up and do a few reps, and the camera counts them for you • Move, and you're back to what you were doing Why you'll keep it • A gentle nudge, not a lecture. No shame, no streaks to guilt you • The camera never records or saves anything; rep detection happens on your device • Your motion data stays on your phone • Your settings follow you to a new phone Recess Premium • Pause the apps that pull at you, until you move • Every exercise: sit-to-stands, lunges, pushups, jumping jacks and more • Your whole record, every month, never reset Free for 7 days, then a yearly subscription. Cancel anytime. Move a little, often. Your body, and your afternoon focus, will thank you. *** Recess Premium is an auto-renewing yearly subscription. After a 7-day free trial, it renews annually at the price shown on this page and in the app unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
