Description:

!!! IMPORTANT NOTE: HOTSEAT IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR CONSUMERS YET. TO USE HOTSEAT YOU MUST HAVE A PIN SUPPLIED BY YOUR EMPLOYER OR HEALTH PLAN!!!

Turn short social breaks into meaningful activity with Hotseat, a health app that’s an anytime, anywhere addition to workplace wellness programs. Good for the non-athlete and active employee, Hotseat combats "sitting disease" by setting up a personal schedule of 2-minute activity breaks based on each employees' capability, comfort and calendar availability. Hotseat uses a system of nudges, social accountability and gameplay to get employees up and moving regularly throughout the day.

Employees create a personalized roster of activities:
- Pick from over 40 activities, including cardio, strength and stretch activities
- Consider intensity level so they pick activities they feel comfortable doing
- Have detailed how-to instructions to support proper performance

Employees set their micro-break schedule:
- Choose how many activity breaks they want to take each day
- Set when they do and don't want to receive these breaks
- Sync with their calendar availability or get breaks pushed at a selected scheduled frequency

Hotseat establishes a daily rotating calendar of activity breaks:
- Pushes activity alert at scheduled break time
- Allows "snooze" time of up to 15 minutes
- Lets employee add new activity breaks at any time

Employees compete in friendly challenges:
- Play the Hotseat game, an elimination game
- Choose from theme-based challenges like the “Return of Jane Fonda”
- Select the start date of their challenge and their opponents
- Include friends and family outside of work (Varies by employer)
- Use strategy and passed activities to eliminate their opponents

Track progress:
- View average activity minutes, game wins and other stats (employees)

I'd like to give it 5 stars

But until a couple things happen, I can't 1) a beep or other noise when the timer is done 2) a consumer version is available 3) you can invite more than one person 4) the calendar interface works again - it stopped working about a week ago My coworkers think I'm nuts for jumping up & doing the exercises, but I feel better!?

Fun and effective

The app looks great. It's intuitive to use. I love the feature that allows you to connect your calendar so it can serve your activities when you're not in the middle of a meeting. My one request: I'd love to have an audio cue when the activity timer ends; some activities are hard to do while looking at your phone.

Wee done!

This simply fits into my daily life without me thinking about it. Even on my laziest days I found myself getting at least SOME activity!

We got a party going on!

Often criticized by coworkers for rarely leaving my desk, HotSeat has me skipping around the office and breaking up meetings to encourage a healthy 2 minutes of pretend hula hooping. Fun and effective.... Will be spreading the word! Sedentary stinks, HotSeat rocks.

I love this app!

This app is a fun, easy, and effective way to get us all up and moving throughout the day. With all the reports about how bad sitting all day is for us, I couldn't wait to give this a try! There are many varied and fun activities within each category (cardio, strength, stretching), and they can really be a workout in 2 minutes! The activities are clearly described, you get lots of choices and options, and the app looks great. My only problem is that it works too well -- in that it reminds me how engrossed in my work, and thus lazy and sedentary, I can be during the day -- because I don't always feel like getting up and taking my breaks!

Motivation to get up and move

Unlike a simple timer to remind you to take a break from sitting, Hotseat gets you moving. Easy to setup, fun and motiving. The short, active breaks immediately give you a burst of energy. The many exercise choices provide variety and challenge. Highly recommend for anyone stuck sitting at a desk.
