What's New in Stand Up! The Work Break Timer

1.4.1

March 27, 2018

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. Thanks for using Stand Up! If you still like Stand Up! we'd appreciate you taking a moment to review it. A small release, but useful: - Used to be the minimum "stand" amount was five minutes, but that's a lot when work beckons. The minimum is now one minute. - Some of you pointed out that you are working when you stand, so you don't want to be told to get back to work. Understandable! The "sit back down" message is now customizable. - The only other sound you hear is the squishing of bugs.

It helps but not in the way i need

Love this but I wish it could tell if you are standing or not I had set it to tell me every 30min and it did but even if I was already standing.

MOVE

I have a sedentary job and, although, I THINK I move a lot during the day, I realize I still need to move more. This app sends me notices to stand. It gets me to move to a new location and, even if I am still working during my standing period, I move! So far so good. I just need the sound to be louder.
