Read full descriptionHide full description
Turn your pushups into a game. BuzzUps combines a home workout with an arcade challenge. Use your iPhone camera to guide a bee through honey gates as you do pushups. Collect flowers, avoid obstacles, and try to beat your best score. YOUR MOVEMENT CONTROLS THE BEE Place your iPhone nearly upright in front of you. Keep your face visible to the front camera. Move up and down as you do pushups to guide the bee through the course. CHASE YOUR NEXT HIGH SCORE Collect regular and golden flowers for extra points. The endless course gets harder as you play. Each run gives you another chance to beat your personal best. TRACK YOUR RUNS See your score, time, and pushup count. Review your run history and follow your progress. BuzzUps counts movement using the camera; it does not check exercise form. RECORD AND SHARE Choose whether to record your run with the game over your camera video. Save your video or share it with friends. Add the Bee Face filter for extra fun. FREE PLAY AND BUZZUPS PLUS BuzzUps includes a limited number of free runs each day. An optional BuzzUps Plus subscription unlocks unlimited runs while your subscription is active. Choose a weekly or yearly subscription. The app shows the price before purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled. Manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings.
