Ok

Pretty helpful to correct behavior but annoying it doesn’t stop while on the phone… constant vibrating during calls while phone is on your ear.

Hello Steve, I will make sure to fix this issue. Thank you for taking the time to give me this feedback, it is very much appreciated. Best regards, Wictor

Excellent App, It’s a Neck Saver!!!

I love the subtle, but effective vibrating reminder.

Great reminder!

I love the vibrate feature, it’s just annoying enough to get me to change to angle I’m holding my phone while not being too disturbing if I do need to just look down quickly at something. I’ve tried other apps that just send me notifications, which I’ve always just ignored, but this is the first app that’s actually gotten me to stop staring down 90 degrees at my phone! You can set the angle, frequency of notifications, and set it to stop when it is stationary, so if you set your phone at an angle while you’re doing something else it won’t yell at you. Awesome app, totally work the money to save my neck and back down the line!
