Move Break

Move Break reminds you to move for 5 minutes every hour — a simple habit backed by science.

Developed by Manoush Zomorodi alongside her book Body Electric, Move Break helps you break up long stretches of sitting with short bursts of movement throughout your day. Get a gentle notification, start a timer, and move however feels good. Need ideas? Turn on exercise suggestions and Move Break will recommend something for you.

Track your progress over time — see how many Move Breaks you've taken, how many minutes you've moved, and build a streak you can feel proud of.

Want to contribute to something bigger? Opt into the Citizen Science experiment to help researchers study how regular movement breaks affect overall health and wellbeing.

Five minutes. Every hour. That's it.
