Stand Up! is a fun, flexible work break timer. By now you know that sitting down is slowly killing you, and we want to help you live longer. It's also great for RSI sufferers, or anyone that needs to take regular breaks. • Free and fully functional! It comes with one alarm tone, and one In-App Purchase unlocks the rest. • Completely customizable to your work schedule. Set it and forget it. • Set your reminder interval to any five-minute increment between five minutes and two hours. • Want to time how long you should stand once you're up? You can set that too. • The header shows you at a glance how you're doing, and the 7-day history shows how you did this week. • Limit alarms to your office location so it doesn't bug you when you go out to lunch. • Many custom alarms, some quite insistent. And there's a random mode to keep you on your toes. • Interactive notifications, acknowledge the reminder from the lock screen. • A Today widget lets you see how long to your next reminder, and to skip or pause notifications. • Alternate color schemes in case you really hate that yellow. We don't micromanage you, and we don't make you feel guilty. There's no compulsive tracking and time management, and we don't tell you what exercises you need to do. Just regular, simple reminders to get up, with easy confirmations so you can get a sense of how you're doing.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Get Moving! Healthy Reminders holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Stand Up!

The Work Break Timer's written reviews are positive against 50% of Get Moving! Healthy Reminders's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Stand Up! The Work Break Timer ships an update every 7 months, Get Moving! Healthy Reminders every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
