AfterShift Some days don’t end when the shift does. AfterShift is a private space to unload what you’re carrying after work — without posting, sharing, or explaining yourself. This app is designed for moments when you need to let something go, but don’t want therapy, social media, or a journal you have to maintain. How it works: Gentle prompts help you name what came up You decide what to keep, and what to leave behind Nothing is shared. Nothing is posted. Everything stays on your device AfterShift is intentionally simple. Open it, set it down, and move on with your day. Built with privacy first No accounts No followers No cloud syncing No data collection AfterShift was created for healthcare workers, caregivers, and anyone carrying emotional weight from their day — but it’s for anyone who needs a quiet place to pause. This is not therapy. This is not advice. This is a place to set it down.

Stop staring at your phone mid-routine. MoveCue runs the exercises you already do hands-free — voice cues, a lock-screen timer, music that keeps playing, and now taps on your Apple Watch. You bring the routine — from your physio, your trainer, a YouTube channel, a printed handout, or your own head. MoveCue is the timer, the voice cue, and the lock-screen Live Activity that keeps you moving without picking up your phone. Using iPhone Duo? Fold it half-way on a table: the ring and exercise are on top, every button is below. Open it fully and your screens sit side by side. — New: MoveCue on Apple Watch — • Start a workout on your wrist or your phone. MoveCue taps your wrist at every step while your phone talks you through it. — Run any routine, hands-free — • Set down your phone, listen for the cue, do the rep, repeat. • Voice cues call out each phase ("Hold", "Rest", "Switch sides"). • Real sound cues for every phase, and haptics up to extra-hard so you feel every boundary, even with the phone in a pocket. • Music keeps playing — MoveCue ducks during cues, never stops. • Record your own voice cues, and change the order of exercises mid-workout. — Plan with MoveCue AI — • Describe what you want — "15-minute morning mobility for stiff hips" — and get one session or a full weekly plan you can review, edit, and save. • New: take a photo of a handout or a gym sheet, and MoveCue turns it into a workout. • Optional, and only after you tap to agree. What you type or say, and any photo you attach, goes through our server to our AI provider — never your name, email, age, sex, height, weight or heart rate. — Build it once, run it forever — • Build routines manually, start from a starter routine, pick from the exercise library, or let MoveCue AI do it. • Reps, Timed hold, and Flow — with per-set reps, holds, sides, weights, rests and supersets. • No stock videos, no content treadmill. You bring what your therapist or trainer gave you. — Share routines with anyone — • Send any workout as a link or a QR image. The receiver adds it to their library in one tap. • No MoveCue? They get a clean web preview of the routine. — Stay with it, on your terms — • Reminders on the days you commit to — start now, snooze for 15 or 30 minutes, or skip the day. • Quiet Hours pause reminders during your sleep window. • Off-days and skipped days don't break your streak. — See your progress — • Personal records, with a chart for each exercise. • New: a body map of the areas you've trained, and a Body balance card. • Fix what you logged after a workout, and your records update. • A heat-map colored by how each session felt, streaks, and badges to earn. • Save workouts to Apple Health (optional). Export a PDF or CSV report. — What MoveCue won't do — • Make medical claims. MoveCue helps you follow your routine — it doesn't replace your physio, trainer, or doctor. • Push notifications guilting you about missed days. • Show streak rankings, leaderboards, or social pressure. — Pricing — Free forever, with limits: • 3 saved workouts • Last 7 days of stats and history • Can receive shared workouts • Manual building and starter routines Pro (monthly or yearly subscription): unlimited workouts, full history and heat-map, send + receive shares, MoveCue AI with photo import, and PDF and CSV export. Cancel anytime in your App Store subscription settings; subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the renewal date.
