Not sure if I will keep the name, but I am really excited about a new app idea. It will be my second native watchOS app! My goal is to help people remember to do 5 minutes of simple walking an hour, during their work day. It can be as simple as slow marching in place, but the idea is movement.
I was listening to a NPR story this morning, about a study that they did with a university that showed the health impacts of sitting for 8-9 hours a day was very bad. And while I have a standing desk, that actually is not as healthy as you’d think. Standing for 2 hours a day can lead to blood clots and other health issues.
The most impactful thing you can do, is take a five minute, slow walk, once an hour. Even sitting, if you shuffle your feet, you can have improvements.
So I am noodling what I can do to make this a simple, one time purchase app.
Now I just need a great UI!
