About

iBalance

Features
Read full description

iBalance is your pocket handstand coach. Whether you're working on your first wall handstand or chasing a clean freestanding hold, iBalance gives you the feedback you'd normally need a coach in the room to provide. WHAT IT DOES • Record or upload a video of your handstand • Pose tracking with 33 body points runs on-device — your videos never leave your phone • Frame-by-frame skeleton overlay so you can see exactly what your body is doing • Joint angles scored against a clean handstand line: shoulders, hips, elbows, toes • Automatic hold-time detection — finds your longest stable hold and times it for you • Plain-English feedback you can act on next attempt • Voice coaching cues during live recording — alignment, stacking, leg straightness • Trim your clip down to the segment that matters (up to 3 minutes) HOW IT WORKS 1. Open the app and either record a fresh attempt with the live skeleton overlay, or pick a video from your gallery. 2. Trim down to the part you actually want analyzed. 3. Watch frame-by-frame as iBalance scores every joint and surfaces your longest hold. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT Most form-check apps need you to upload videos to a server and wait for a human or a cloud AI to look at them. iBalance does the pose analysis right on your iPhone — instant feedback, no waiting, and your training footage stays on your device. FREE WEEK, THEN UNLOCK iBalance includes a 7-day free trial. After that, choose a monthly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. Cancel anytime in your App Store subscription settings. Subscriptions auto-renew until cancelled. Manage at any time from Settings → Apple Account → Subscriptions.
