About Stand Up Reminder - LeaveTheChair
LeaveTheChair is a gentle stand-up / sit-break reminder for Chrome. When your interval is up, it shows a clear full-page prompt on the tab you’re actually looking at—so you notice it, without spamming every open tab.
WHO IT’S FOR
• People who spend long stretches in the browser for work, study, or coding
• Anyone who wants a simple desk break habit: stand, stretch, walk, refill water
WHAT YOU GET
• Timed stand-up reminders with custom intervals
• Optional work hours so alerts only fire when you want them
• Active-tab overlay: reminder appears on the current page only
• One-tap pause for meetings and screen shares
• Skins & language: click the logo at the top-left of the popup to switch themes and toggle Chinese / English
• Local-first privacy: settings and schedule stay on your device
HOW TO USE
1. Install and open the popup to make sure reminders are on
2. Pick an interval (30–60 minutes is a good start)
3. Optionally set work hours
4. To change skins or language: click the top-left logo in the popup
5. When the overlay appears, stand up, move a bit, then dismiss to start the next cycle
PERMISSIONS
The extension needs page access to show the on-page reminder layer and bundled motion assets. It is not used for ads or selling browsing data.
LeaveTheChair focuses on one job: help you break long sitting with a calm, visible reminder.
