Standflow is a standing desk timer that lives in your Mac's menu bar. It guides you through a cycle of sitting, standing, perching on a tall stool, and short movement breaks, so you change posture often instead of sitting (or standing) all day. Start from a preset like Easy Start, based on the 20-8-2 guideline, or drag the cycle ring to build your own. Reminders can move on automatically or ask first. Track a daily standing goal and 7/30/90-day metrics. No account: your data stays on your Mac.
