## What is Stand Up Reminder?

According to Harvard Health Publications, more than half of the average person’s waking hours are spent sitting: watching television, working at a computer, commuting, or doing other physically inactive pursuits. But all that sitting could be sending us to an early grave—even those folks who exercise up to an hour a day.

 If Americans would cut their sitting time in half, their life expectancy would increase by roughly:
+  2 years (by reducing sitting to less than 3 hours a day)
+ 1.4 years (by reducing TV time to less than 2 hours a day)

The Stand Up Reminder is the break timer app which helps you to stand more at office, at home, reminds you to stand up at the right time, tracks all the time you stood, calculates calories burned during your standing. And the most important thing: helps you to form a new habit of standing and moving instead of sitting.

### 1/5 — Too Many Ads and not Functional

*2024-06-11*

You are constantly bombarded with ads in this app and you cannot easily customize it to simply remind you to stand up and move.

### 2/5 — I don’t understand it

*2024-01-29*

This app is supposed to tell me every 30 minutes to stand for 15 minutes…. If i close the app the timer stops. It doesn’t notify me at all and when it has a notification you can’t access it. 
It’s not worth it, at least not on my phone. I will give it another try on the Ipad, but i dont have high hopes

### 1/5 — Stupid app

*2024-01-21, version 9.4.0*

It provides a countdown with no ability to change any settings.

### 2/5 — First things first: Ads!

*2023-06-14*

An unskippable ad popped up before the tutorial for the app. No thanks...

### 3/5 — Some bugs make it awkward to use

*2022-09-21*

Message isn’t actually customizable. The form input only takes numbers and it doesn’t even update the message. It updates goal instead. Also the app doesn’t refresh properly when you don’t use it for a day. The tracking and logging uses the last day the app was opened on.

### 5/5 — What one needs. No frills, just 100% pure efficiency

*2021-04-20*

Good, good, good

### 1/5 — Just doesn’t work

*2021-04-07*

I started the timer before 6AM and turned it off just after 8AM
Should have been about 140 minutes.
Nope 28 minutes.

This app just does NOT function at all.

Now I’m passed I paid the $3 for it, what a piece of useless garbage.

### 1/5 — This app is a waste of space

*2021-04-03*

Tested this for the last few days. The app doesn’t give any reminders to stand or move. It only tracks if you specifically start it every hour. If I already did that, I wouldn’t need an app.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2021-02-06*

In the 5 seconds I had the app open, I saw 3 full screen ads. No thanks

### 1/5 — useless

*2021-01-26*

difficult to navigate, not user friendly, probably haven’t made an update to their app in YEARS. really disappointed and waste of money.
