UdeTancho
Read full descriptionHide full description
UdeTancho is a Japanese-inspired fitness app that automatically counts push-ups and quietly records your daily practice. Place your iPhone on the floor. The front camera reads the movement of your face in real time and counts your push-ups, so you can focus on the movement instead of tapping the screen or counting by hand. ■ Waka Progress As you train, Hyakunin Isshu poems are written one character at a time. Completed poems unlock a modern translation, commentary, and historical background. Your workout record gradually becomes a poetry collection. ■ Poetic Places Map Explore places connected to the poems. Follow poetic place names and the poets' historical centers while the world of Hyakunin Isshu opens up little by little. ■ Records See today's reps, total reps, streaks, and history at a glance. A heatmap makes your practice visible over time. Even small sessions matter when they add up. ■ Built for Sustainable Practice If you leave the measurement screen or if no count is detected for a while, measurement stops automatically. UdeTancho is designed to support a sustainable habit, not unsafe max-rep chasing. ■ Key Features • Automatic push-up counting • Real-time detection using the front camera • Hyakunin Isshu waka progress collection • Modern translations, commentary, and background notes • Poetic places map • Daily records and heatmap • Streak tracking • Japanese & English support • Optional in-app purchase to remove ads Make push-ups a little easier to keep doing. One rep today becomes the next character.
