Stretch Reminder
Read full descriptionHide full description
You meant to get up an hour ago. Then the next meeting started, and your neck is already tight again. StretchPause is the stretch reminder that actually interrupts you ā a calm notification on your schedule, then a short guided desk stretch you can finish in under a minute. Most reminder apps just buzz and leave you to figure out what to do. StretchPause opens the pause for you: one stretch, an animated demo showing the movement, step-by-step cues, and a hold timer that counts you down and switches sides when it should. Nothing to plan, nothing to look up. 48 stretches across neck, shoulders, back, wrists, hips and full body, plus 8 ready-made routines for the complaint you actually have right now ā Neck SOS, Shoulder Unlock, Wrist and Hand Relief, Lower Back Reset, Hip Opener, Screen Break, Full Desk Reset and Wind Down. WHAT YOU GET - Reminders that arrive on your rhythm ā every 20, 30, 45, 60 or 90 minutes, only inside the work hours you set - Quiet evenings, because Smart Pause holds notifications outside those hours instead of pinging you at dinner - A stretch you can follow without thinking: animated demo, plain-language steps, hold timer and automatic side switch - Only the stretches you like in rotation ā toggle any of the 48 on or off and reminders draw from your own pool - Proof the habit is sticking: daily streak, level, total pauses, minutes moved, 7/14/30-day bar chart and body-zone balance - 12 built-in guides on desk posture, eye strain, wrist nerve glides and making the pause stick PERFECT FOR - Desk workers and developers who sit through eight hours without standing up - Anyone with a stiff neck, rounded shoulders or an aching lower back by 3pm - People on back-to-back video calls who need a legitimate excuse to move - Remote workers with no colleague walking past to break up the sitting WHY NOT JUST SET A PHONE ALARM An alarm tells you to move. It doesn't tell you what to do, so you snooze it. StretchPause hands you a specific stretch with a demo and a timer the moment the reminder fires, rotates through your body zones so nothing gets neglected, and logs the pause so you can see the streak you'd rather not break. PRIVACY Everything runs on your device. No account, no sign-up, no tracking, no data leaving your phone. Your logs and settings live in local storage only, and the app works completely offline. FULL ACCESS Free includes 25 stretches and 3 routines. Full access unlocks all 48 stretches, all 8 routines and your complete records and insights, available as a weekly plan, a yearly plan or a one-time lifetime purchase. Set your interval, set your work hours, and let the next reminder get you out of the chair.

Thirty
Read full descriptionHide full description
Thirty does one thing: after thirty minutes of sitting, it gets you up to walk. Open it and the whole screen is a single number. Tap once and 30 starts counting down by the minute. Brushing the screen won't interrupt it. Press and hold for about a second to stop. At 0, your phone rings. Stand up and walk with your phone for ten real seconds to finish the round. Leaving the phone on your desk, or shaking it while you sit, doesn't count. When you're done it rests at 30. The next round starts only when you tap. ⢠30 independent-music scenes: rehearsal rooms, basement venues, a record pressing plant. A new one each round. (The photos are AI-generated.) ⢠On iOS 26 and later, a system alarm that rings even in Silent mode or Focus ⢠The same single number on the Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, Home Screen widget, and Apple Watch Smart Stack ⢠No account, no internet connection, no data collected Thirty doesn't play music, and it isn't a medical device. It just gets you out of your chair.
