Standing Desk Timer for Mac & iPhone
Customizable sit-stand reminders that keep you moving throughout your workday.
What Is a Standing Desk Timer?
A standing desk timer is an app that tracks how long you sit and stand during your workday. It sends you reminders to switch positions at intervals you choose, so you never lose track of time in one posture.
Most people with adjustable desks forget to alternate positions. A sit-stand timer solves this by running in the background and nudging you when it is time to move. You set the rhythm; the app keeps you on track.
Benefits of Sit-Stand Reminders
- •Better posture. Regular position changes prevent the slouching that comes from sitting too long.
- •More energy. Standing intervals boost circulation and reduce the afternoon slump.
- •Less back pain. Alternating between sitting and standing reduces pressure on your lower back and spine.
- •Sharper focus. Movement breaks help you return to tasks with renewed concentration.
- •Healthier habits. A desk reminder app builds consistency you can maintain long term.

Need a longer rest after several cycles? Standly handles that too. Set a break interval and let the app manage the entire rhythm of your workday. Timers stay reliable even when your phone is locked or you switch apps.
Track your progress with daily and weekly stats. Standly shows time spent per step type, your current streak, and your best streak — so you can see your healthy desk habits take shape over time.
