What are sit-stand reminder timers and do they actually help people use the desk more?

Sit-stand reminder timers prompt you — via a buzz, beep, or LED indicator — at set intervals (usually every 30 to 60 minutes) to switch between sitting and standing. Research consistently shows that people who use reminders transition more frequently, which is the whole point of having a height-adjustable desk. They're especially useful for people who get absorbed in work and lose track of time in one position.
