User reviews

Posture Reminder is praised for its simplicity, clean design, and usefulness for individuals with back pain or long computer use. However, many users experience inconsistent or missing notifications, with some needing to reinstall or update to restore functionality. Occasional duplicate notifications and a desire for more customizable reminder intervals were noted. A few users encountered offensive content in reminders, causing disappointment. Overall, while the extension has good intentions and design, reliability issues and content complaints impact its effectiveness.
Pros
  • Simple and easy to use interface.
  • Visually better and simpler design compared to other posture reminder extensions.
  • Nonobtrusive and effectively serves as a posture reminder.
  • Helpful for people with back problems or those who work long hours on computers.
  • Useful for students and professionals engaging in prolonged online activities.
Cons
  • The extension frequently fails to send notifications as scheduled, with many users reporting no reminders at all.
  • Notifications sometimes stop working after initial use, requiring reinstallation or updates.
  • Some users reported the extension sending duplicate notifications instead of a single reminder.
  • There are reports of controversial content in reminders that some users found offensive, which detracts from user experience.
  • Lack of customizable timer intervals; users want more frequent reminders than the default settings allow.

Pretty simple app but is very easy to use . However I wish there was a costume made timer as someone who's new to trying to fix my posture I need to be reminded much more frequently as 5-10 minutes until I can be ready to hold my Posture for longer time
