Description
UP is a simple and effective menu bar application built to put a stop to the sitting epidemic.
Sitting for prolonged amounts of time makes you a prime candidate for heart disease, diabetes and obesity–even if you work out regularly. However, by taking regular breaks, you can reverse these detrimental effects. Standing breaks not only improve your general health, but they also improve the health and function of your neck, back, shoulders, and eyes.
Features:
• Designed to seamlessly integrate with your Mac's Notification Center.
• Pleasant and discreet notification sounds that are great for the office.
• Animated menu bar icon updates as it gets closer to standing time.
• Tips and suggestions to get you up and improve your health.
• Stats to keep track of how many times you've gotten up.
• Optional "Silly Sounds" setting for that added motivation.
• Ability to customize the reminder message.
• Ability to adjust the reminder time.
• Full dark mode support.
• Launch at login option.
What are you waiting for? Take control of your health. Get UP.

Ratings and Reviews
Does one job, and does it well
Although I do daily exercise, I've noticed how uncomfortable I get if I spend a lot of time at the computer. This little utility gives me a reminder every 30 minutes to get up and move around. The optional MiniUP overlay can show you how much time you have before your next exercise break. I feel much better after using this for a week or so, highly recommended!
Developer Response ,
That's great to hear! It's so important to take regular breaks and exercise when you're spending a lot of time at the computer. Thanks for sharing your experience with this utility, we're glad it's been helpful for you!
Simple to use and effective
I have used other remnder apps but deleted them too complicated. I just started using the app and find it simple yet effective at encouraging me to take a break from the screen. As a suggestion, being able to replace/edit the reminder messages would be a nice feature.
