“There is progress in every step you take and every move you make" - that's the philosophy behind MoveMentor, your AI-driven companion in the journey towards a more active and healthy lifestyle. MoveMentor is personalised, smart, educational and fun! At the core of MoveMentor is the belief that meaningful change starts with small, manageable steps. MoveMentor focusses on forming activity habits that can last a lifetime. This app isn't about setting big, hard-to-reach goals that will make you run out of puff in no time. It's about gradually building up to an activity level that makes a difference to your health and done in such a way you love and enjoy being active every day. Using advanced machine learning, MoveMentor personalises your experience. It understands your current activity levels and suggests realistic daily goals to gradually increase your activity levels. MoveMentor will send timely notifications to be active throughout the day, to keep you motivated and help you achieve your daily goal. The longer you use MoveMentor, the smarter the notifications will become, as MoveMentor will learn what works for you and what doesn’t and adapt accordingly. MoveMentor will acts as your personal motivator, engaging in conversations that educate and inspire you to move a bit more, one day at a time. You can: - Ask MoveMentor all your burning questions about being active. - Have guided educational chats on a range of topics to help you build an active habit. - Use the action planning tool to turn your activity intentions into concrete actions. - Use the resource library for when you need ideas, inspiration or motivation to keep your activity habit going on difficult days. - Customise (e.g., when you receive notifications and how many) and personalise (e.g., options you have to be active at home, at work and in your neighbourhood), so you can make MoveMentor work in line with your preferences. MoveMentor is an evidence-based behavioural intervention developed by world leading physical activity researchers at the Central Queensland University and applies the most effective behaviour change techniques to develop and sustain activity habits that protect your health and productivity. Imagine a notification to be active, just when you need it, to get up and move, or a friendly chat that ends with you feeling more motivated than before. That's MoveMentor for you - a resourceful program that leverages machine learning to personalize your activity journey. It intelligently determines your best daily goals and the right time to step up your game, ensuring you're always on a path of sustainable growth. Embrace the simplicity and joy of becoming more active and healthy with MoveMentor.

Made for people who want to get back into their life. Start with a Burst: a ready-made morning, afternoon or evening built around activities that stand up to scrutiny. All the details are worked out. You just pick one and get into it. Then hold on to the activities you want to keep doing to meet the goals you care about. Get feedback after every session and understand your wins with research-based feedback. Just keep turning up. Good weeks, bad weeks, it doesn’t matter. Your personalised check-in will help you work out the smart changes to make. START WITH A BURST Everywhere you look, someone's got a routine and they're sure it's the one. Doing something good for yourself shouldn't mean knowing how to put a routine together, or following some intense protocol that’s never going to work for you. - A Burst turns the kind of routine you'd normally screenshot and forget about into something you schedule and do. Nothing in it is random. The activities, order, timing and the guides you’ll need are all worked out for you. - Try a few and you start getting a feel for what suits you: what clicked, what helped you feel better, what you would do again. - It’s a routine to try while you’re working out what suits you. Bearmore helps you keep going, whether that means another Burst, a plan you can keep turning up for, or a single activity you want to revisit. Do one and you have more than a session logged. You have a morning, afternoon or evening worth bragging about. Do a few and you have the start of knowing what’s going to work for you. HOW IT WORKS 1. Try Bursts. They’re free and every detail is worked out. 2. Use guides for 46 activities, from 3 minutes to 3 hours. 3. Work out which activities you want to keep doing. 4. Decide what matters. Your goals in your words. 5. Turn your activities, goals and time into a game plan. 6. Understand your wins with research-based feedback. 7. Just keep turning up. Good weeks, bad weeks, it doesn’t matter. We’ll help you know what to do next to keep moving in the right direction. BUILT FOR YOUR LIFE Even with the best intentions, life can get in the way. When work blows out, family stuff happens, and you’re tired, you don’t have to put it all on hold. Instead, flex for the situation and do what’s possible. That’s the smart move. * Choose short purpose-built guides for your activities when time is tight * Ditch the guides and do it yourself when you know what you’re doing * Swap to something less demanding on the harder days, then step it back up when you’ve got more in the tank * Dial the pace back for a full fortnight if life is hitting you from every angle WHAT YOU'LL EXPERIENCE - Bursts you can do in a morning, afternoon or evening, solo or with someone - Evidence-backed activities, linked to tangible benefits - Clear, plain-language guidance, so you know what to do and why - Feedback shaped by your session data, not generic advice - Early wins and numbers you can make decisions with Privacy: https://www.bearmore.com/privacy-policy Terms: https://www.bearmore.com/terms-of-use
