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.

Great idea.

This is the perfect timer. Easy to setup, not noisy and a real help. I’m retired and never realized how long I sit at one time. I start a book three hours later I’m still sitting. This gets me up and moving. I like that I can set up the days, how long I sit and how long I stand. It’s been a great help. Been using it for weeks now and it’s a real help to keep moving.

Stupid app

I got this app to remind me to get my steps in every single hour during the day. Unfortunately, I keep having to reset the stupid thing because instead of going off every 60 minutes throughout the day it goes off 60 minutes after I acknowledge the reminder. That means it goes off at 8 AM. I acknowledge it at 8:30 when I wake up. Then it doesn't go off again until 930. I acknowledge it at 9:35 when my hands are empty and it gets later every hour until it skips an hour, unless I reset the stupid thing every time I acknowledge it. I don't want it to go off 60 minutes from when I acknowledge it. I want it to go off every 60 minutes during the day!!!!!!!!!
