The app works pretty well with my AirPods 3, but doesn’t work well with my AirPods Pro 2. With the Pros, I’m sitting straight up and it’s still constantly nagging me to correct my posture. ### 3/5 — Не работает *2024-07-22* Приложение красивое, яркое, судя по отзывам очень полезное. Но не включается трекинг с наушниками AirPods Pro 2( ### 1/5 — Posture pal *2024-06-11* Деньги списало , но не запускается 👍 ### 3/5 — It doesn't work *2024-05-28* I've granted the program access and also put on the AirPods，but the button "start tracking " is always grey ,I can't turn it on ,why？ ### 1/5 — Don’t download *2024-05-01, version 2.0* Couldn’t set up ### 1/5 — Not good *2024-04-09, version 1.3* The giraffe kept popping up regardless of my position. And now I can't even figure out how to delete the app from my laptop. Really bad! ### 5/5 — Works perfectly for Airpods Pro 1 *2024-04-08* Good to find the macOS version is available. This is more useful for me since I typically connect Airpods to Mac instead of iPhone while I am sitting at the desk. A minor suggestion: the pals are cute, but would be great if we can add our own characters. It doesn't need to be very easy to use (creating good animation is hard, anyway), but I am interested to try out, if it's using Live2D or something similar. ### 5/5 — DOES WHAT IS SAYS *2024-03-03, version 2.0* Incredible! Helps so much! ### 4/5 — Useful and Practical *2024-02-13* This app does a great job at what it does, which is keep track of my posture through use of AirPods. It doesn’t interfere with current audio playing and keeps me from slouching all day at my desk. The only thing on my wishlist? Please make it compatible with VisionOS (just port the existing app over) so I can correct my posture while using the Vision Pro. Thank you! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work at all! *2025-12-05, version 2.1* Nothing works on it. ### 1/5 — Не видит AirPods Pro 2 *2025-08-11, version 2.0.2* Не получилось запустить из-за того что приложение не видит AirPods и кнопка начала отслеживания не активна ### 1/5 — Unclear Trial. Cute giraffe. *2025-04-29, version 2.0.2* Free trial is unclear. I was going to do what appeared to be a default free trial but was immediately charged for a year subscription. Sure, the app is cute, but it’s not cute enough to pay $25 annually for without consent. ### 1/5 — Arrogant Developer can’t take constructive criticism *2025-04-27* There was problem with app I tried contacting the developer as the app wouldn’t allow to talk to anyone just locks you i talke to jordi on twitter about the problem he said i was spamming and was rude i have screenshots if someone needs that. ### 1/5 — Free Trial Scam *2025-02-19, version 2.0* Clicked “start free trial” and it automatically charged me 5 bucks. I’ve reached out three times and haven’t gotten a response, not cool. ### 1/5 — Broken *2024-12-26* The app is broken completely. Won’t let me start tracking and I even messaged the creator months ago with no answer ### 1/5 — Not working *2024-11-08, version 2.0* Not working at all. Didn’t detect AirPods ### 1/5 — Does not connect to AirPods Pro 2 *2024-09-27* Sadly no functionality with AirPods Pro 2 - does not connect even if the AirPods are connected to the phone - tested on ios 18 ### 1/5 — Not working with AirPods Pro 2gen. Please fix *2024-08-05, version 2.0* Not working with AirPods Pro 2gen. Please fix ### 1/5 — Broken? *2024-07-09* It wont allow me to start tracking even though my airpods are connected. Button wont work, will rate higher if issue resolved ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — wow *2025-12-05, version 2.1* creative and useful app ### 5/5 — coole funktion *2025-12-01* leider geht das upgrade zur vollversion auf dem mac gerade nicht weil die im im onboarding nicht richtig funktioniert. und die premium features übertragen sich wohl auch nicht da ich sie auf dem iphone besitze :/ dennoch super um die haltung zu verbessern ### 5/5 — Great app! *2025-12-01, version 2.1* Has been very helpful in correcting my posture. ### 5/5 — 可愛いアプリ *2025-10-14* ずっと気に入って利用しています。 日本語対応して頂いて嬉しいです！ ### 5/5 — Все работает *2024-11-17* Понравилось приложение, очень удобное, особенно функции с настройкой наклона и настраиваемой задержкой уведомления. Одно маленькое дополнение, иногда бывает, что телефон в заблокированном режиме перестает отслеживать, если открыть приложение, то он продолжает это делать. Может проблема в устройстве, а не в приложении, здесь не берусь судить ### 5/5 — Please fix *2024-09-19* I love your iOS app, and I just discovered you have a Mac app as well. Unfortunately it simply doesn’t work for me, nothing happens when I open the app. Or sometimes a very small window appears, so small it barely fits the word “Settings” - and that’s it! ### 5/5 — Works with AirPods Pro 2 *2024-08-20, version 2.0* At first it didn’t work, but then I toggled off and on again the Fitness data in the app settings, and now it works! Nice app, both for iOS and Mac. ### 5/5 — Cool idea and it works *2024-08-08, version 1.3* I'm not sure yet if it will help me, but the app is one of a kind (using airpods to detect posture? brilliant!) and works as expected. ### 5/5 — Life changing *2024-07-25* And smart! Thank you! ### 5/5 — Nice App *2024-05-25* Nice app. Enough features for free. My fav are posture angle setting, No time limit, App Icon Change. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
