Ease is the desk posture break companion that pulls you out of the sitting coma every 30-60 minutes with guided 2-minute routines targeting the exact muscles desk work destroys: neck, shoulders, hip flexors, lower back, and wrists. SMART BREAK REMINDERS Set your break interval (30, 45, 60, or 90 minutes) and Ease reminds you when it is time to move. Configure active hours so reminders only fire during work. Meeting mode silences alerts when you need to focus, then suggests a longer break to compensate. GUIDED MICRO-ROUTINES Four expert-designed break routines you can do standing at your desk in normal clothes: - Neck and Shoulders (3 min) - chin tucks, side stretches, shoulder rolls, chest opener - Hip Flexor Opener (2 min) - the #1 fix for desk-related back pain - Wrist and Forearm (2 min) - typing strain relief, carpal tunnel prevention - Full Body Reset (5 min) - complete head-to-toe desk recovery EXERCISE LIBRARY Browse 20+ exercises organized by body area. Every exercise includes clear instructions, why it works, and when to use it. No equipment. No gym. No workout clothes. SYMPTOM NAVIGATOR Start from what hurts: "My neck hurts" shows you the exact stretches to fix it, plus the ergonomic change that prevents it from coming back. ERGONOMIC SETUP GUIDE A 5-minute checklist that fixes your monitor height, chair position, keyboard placement, and wrist angle. Prevents 80% of desk pain before it starts. BREAK LOG Track every break: time, type, duration, and how you feel after. Build the movement habit with data. PREMIUM FEATURES Upgrade to unlock custom break routines, break analytics and trends, calendar-integrated meeting mode, AI Posture Guide powered by Grok, and custom app icons. DESIGNED FOR DESK WORKERS Whether you work in an office, from home, or game for hours, Ease provides the movement breaks that prevent pain before it starts. Every exercise is designed to be done at your desk in 2-3 minutes. The best posture is the next posture. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
