Move Break reminds you to move for 5 minutes every hour โ a simple habit backed by science. Developed by Manoush Zomorodi alongside her book Body Electric, Move Break helps you break up long stretches of sitting with short bursts of movement throughout your day. Get a gentle notification, start a timer, and move however feels good. Need ideas? Turn on exercise suggestions and Move Break will recommend something for you. Track your progress over time โ see how many Move Breaks you've taken, how many minutes you've moved, and build a streak you can feel proud of. Want to contribute to something bigger? Opt into the Citizen Science experiment to help researchers study how regular movement breaks affect overall health and wellbeing. Five minutes. Every hour. That's it.
Be Healthy

Be Healthy is for the eight hours you spend at a desk โ not the one hour you might be at the gym. It learns your day. When you sit longest. When your energy dips. Where pain shows up. Then it surfaces smart break reminders at the right moments โ never one minute too early. SMART BREAKS Reminders adapted to your work hours, posture, and pain points. Triggered by your motion, not a dumb hourly timer. Take them anywhere โ on the Today screen, the Lock Screen, or with one tap from the Dynamic Island. AI COACH Personalized advice that knows your last seven days, your goals, your routine. Ask about pain, energy, pacing โ every reply is tuned to your profile and what's happening today. No generic tips. DAILY DESK HEALTH SCORE A real-time read on how your day is going. Red doesn't mean bad โ it means your body is ready for a break. Updates live as the day unfolds. PERSONALIZED DAILY PLAN Generated each morning from your hours, your body, and your goals. Your plan adapts as the day progresses โ meetings, late lunches, energy dips and all. POSTURE & STRETCH ROUTINES Targeted micro-sessions for back, neck, hips, and wrists. Two-minute resets that fit between calls. APPLE HEALTH Read-only access to steps, sleep, heart rate, and stand hours. iPhone motion sensors detect sitting and movement on-device โ never sent to our servers. BE HEALTHY PRO Unlock the AI Coach, personalized daily plans, Live Activities, and motion-triggered smart breaks. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
