DeskMode turns the low-intensity movement of a desk day into one honest number. Time how long you sit, stand, walk on a treadmill desk, or pedal an under-desk bike, and see the calories you burn ABOVE just sitting - never inflated, never guilt-tripped. One thing, done well. Not a food logger, not a workout app. Just the four modes you actually switch between at a desk, and the honest math behind them. HONEST, NET CALORIES - Calories are the extra above resting - sitting is your baseline and does not pad the number. Only standing, walking and cycling add to it. - Validated MET values (Ainsworth 2011) x your real body weight, with a plain +/-20-30% disclaimer. Better to be calibratable than fake-precise. - Tap any figure to see a per-activity breakdown and exactly how it is worked out. GLANCEABLE FROM ACROSS THE ROOM - Big timer, one tap to start, one tap to flip sit to stand. A quick-switch strip keeps every mode a thumb away. - A live speed dial for the treadmill desk and a resistance dial for the bike, so calories track your real pace. APPLE WATCH, IN SYNC - Start, flip, pause and stop from your wrist as one shared timer with iPhone. - The same honest "above sitting" calories, a today summary, and a Digital Crown mode switch. COMFORT COACHING AS YOU GO - While a timer runs, DeskMode surfaces a short, activity-specific comfort and mobility tip - calf raises and hip openers for long standing, ankle circles for cycling - rotating every few minutes. Around 70 cues, each cited to a real source (Cornell Ergonomics, OSHA, NIOSH, ACSM, NASM, AHA). Guidance, not medical advice. A WEEK THAT FITS - Build named profiles ("Office" with a desk bike Mon/Wed/Fri, "Home office" Tue/Thu) that scope which modes and reminders show each day. One tap to "Use today" when plans change. - Opt-in stand and sit nudges that offer to switch or snooze - never automatic, never naggy. PROGRESS, WITHOUT THE PRESSURE - Levels, ~40 collectible badges, and a GitHub-style activity heatmap. - A no-shame streak: a quiet day is rest, not a red mark. - Explore every chart - scrub the trends, tap the split, read exact values. APPLE HEALTH - Reads your latest weight for accurate calories and saves sessions as workouts. Syncs when you open the app; nothing is ever duplicated. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT - Your activity stays on your device. No accounts, no tracking, no ads. Lock Screen Live Activity, Dynamic Island, and Home-Screen widgets keep today's on-feet minutes and calories a glance away. DeskMode Pro unlocks the whole app - every mode, chart, badge, widget, the Apple Watch app and weekly profiles. Start with a 3-day free trial, then choose a monthly or yearly subscription.
