Super handy when you really need it.
I’ve kept this app handy for years now. It's hard to rate an app as a favorite when you use it only when you're miserable. Really, I'd prefer never to need it again. But for me vertigo is an intermittent reality. Just as Dan says, your cell phone is always with you when vertigo strikes, and sometimes I go months in between attacks, forgetting exactly how each step of the Epley maneuvers goes.
Sure, you can dig up more details on Epleys on the Internet, but this app has been a real timesaving reminder each time I've needed it. I use it with a timer app to time each position. For me, 3 minutes in each position works best, and I don't need to sleep in a chair -- but it's not the same for everyone.
Also, for me, I need to have a bucket within reach when I’m doing Epleys because they sometimes make me suddenly sick to my stomach. Epleys are very worth it, though, even when that happens.
Thanks very much for this app, Dan.

The App Developer responds
1. I have investigated the left ear/right ear comment, and I am sorry that I reversed these. Even though I followed the instructions from my physical therapist, I should have sought other validation. However, no physician or PT has ever told me which ear is the problem, so I experimented with both sets of instructions until I found something that works. I suspect that most people who do the Epley maneuver do the same. Regardless, the directions will be corrected in the next version.
2. The comment about being incomplete is incorrect, probably because all the illustrations could not be shown in the App Store photos, and the app was judged purely on those photos. The app contains all the positions, including the position with the face turned down.

Brilliant
Thank you so much just what I wanted. Unless you have vertigo this App will mean nothing to you, so posting "this is rubbish" is totally unfair.
It is a well known medical procedure but rarely can it be found with pictures or audio. This App has both. 10 attempts and it has almost subsided. Can't thank you enough.

Just a couple pictures -- not worth $1.99
I thought this app would use the accelerometer sensors to guide you through the Epley maneuver, but it just a couple pictures that are not as good as the info you can get for free on Wikipedia. Would like to get a refund.
Don't buy this rip off
This is a complete rip off don't buy it.
