Open the appCalm workday rhythm
A sit-stand timer for the workday.
DeskRhythm works as a standing desk timer that helps you alternate sitting, standing, and movement during desk work. Start the day, get a clear signal when it is time to switch, and finish with a summary that adds up across multiple sessions.
Why breaking up sitting time matters
Long uninterrupted sitting is linked to lower energy, stiffness, and reduced focus. DeskRhythm is built to make regular changes practical during a normal workday.
How it works
- Follow a simple sit-stand-move rhythm.
- Confirm each phase change when it fits your work.
- Keep a local-first summary and weekly history.
Walking pad
A walking-pad routine that fits the work
Some tasks fit walking — calls, reading, light email. Others don't. DeskRhythm lets you start a walking-pad session from the dashboard whenever the next chunk of work fits.
Enable Walking pad in Settings — a Walking pad session button appears on the dashboard.
