PUSHUP uses real-time AI pose detection to count your reps, analyze your form, and track your progress — no wearable required. Just prop your phone on the ground, get into position, and start your mission. HOW IT WORKS Your phone's camera feeds into TensorFlow.js MoveNet, a pose-detection model that runs entirely on your device. It watches your movement, counts each rep, and gives you live feedback on depth, elbow angle, and body alignment. Nothing is recorded. Nothing leaves your phone. PICK YOUR MISSION Choose from six built-in daily targets — from Recruit (25 reps) to Vanguard (1,000) — or set a custom goal. Your target drives the progress bar and calendar heatmap so you can see exactly where you stand. TRACK EVERY SESSION A GitHub-style activity calendar shows your daily volume at a glance. See your current streak, peak day, average reps per day, and total sessions. Clear trends. No clutter. REAL-TIME FORM ANALYTICS PUSHUP doesn't just count — it coaches. Live readouts show your elbow angle, body alignment, rep depth, and movement phase so you can correct bad habits before they stick. BUILT FOR PRIVACY No account. No sign-up. No cloud sync. All pose detection runs on-device with TensorFlow.js. Your camera is used solely for tracking and is never recorded. Session data is stored locally and can be purged at any time. FEATURES • AI-powered rep counting via live camera pose detection • Real-time form feedback: depth, elbow angle, alignment • Six preset daily targets plus custom goals • Calendar heatmap with streak and volume stats • Manual +/− correction buttons for miscounts • Front or rear camera support • Onboarding tutorial with setup tips • Fully offline — no internet required after install • One-tap data purge for complete privacy Just you, the floor, and your phone.

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. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://movecue.app/privacy Terms of Use: https://movecue.app/terms Made for self-directed physio, yoga, mobility and stretching, strength sessions — anyone with a routine they want to run without staring at their phone.
