No wearables. No complicated setup. Just better posture, automatically. Perfect For: • Desk workers spending 8+ hours at computers • Gamers in long sessions • Students studying for hours • Anyone tired of chronic neck and back pain • Remote workers in video calls all day How It Works: Start a session with one tap.

Straighten up, and the tracking continues. Build better habits without thinking about it. Every Feature You Need: Smart Detection - Your AirPods' built-in sensors track head tilt with precision. Custom sensitivity settings let you adjust detection to match your unique body and workspace. Set your ideal posture baseline in seconds with easy calibration.
