Stretchio is a voice-guided stretching app where you simply move along with the voice. You do not have to keep staring at the screen; just follow the guide and you will stretch with the right timing every time. Highlights: - Voice-first guidance: the voice announces the start, counts down the remaining seconds, tells you when to switch sides, and reads out the name of the next pose. No need to keep watching the screen, so you can even keep going at night with your phone face down. - 70 stretches built in: neck, shoulders, back, lower back, legs, hips and more, shown clearly with original pictograms for each area. - Three intensity levels: choose Gentle, Normal or Deep, so everyone from stiff beginners to daily stretchers can work at the right level. - Routines for every moment: morning refresh, shoulder and neck relief, bedtime wind-down and more, all starting with a single tap. - Your own stretches and routines: combine the poses you like into original routines. - Progress you can see: visualize your effort with a day streak, total time and a calendar. You can also leave a quick how-it-felt note. - Reminders: a gentle nudge at your daily stretch time. Great for: - People who are stiff and do not know where to start - People whose shoulders and lower back get tight from desk work - Anyone who wants a short stretch as a morning or bedtime habit - Anyone who would rather follow a voice than watch a video No account required.
