MoveCue
Read full descriptionHide full description
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.

Pocket Posture
Read full descriptionHide full description
Pocket Posture is a voice-guided posture training app. Put your phone aside, keep your eyes on your body, and follow the cues one rep at a time. 【Cues on the beat】 Each exercise is broken into steps, and every step gets its cue right on time: open, squeeze, back. You always hear which rep, which set and how many are left. Key points are woven into the cues, so you get reminders while you move. 【Hands-free】 With earbuds: Play/Pause pauses or resumes, Next skips (counts as failure), Previous restarts the count, and during rest Previous goes back a set. Taking out your AirPods pauses automatically. Training keeps running on the lock screen, where you can pause and skip. 【40+ built-in exercises, plus your own】 Covers neck, shoulders, upper back, hips, ankles, full body and core, plus reaction drills with a tennis ball. Adjust sets, reps and tempo on the home screen, drag to reorder, and pair two exercises as a superset. Add your own exercises: for rep-based ones, write what to say going up and coming down and what to remind at each step; for timed ones, set how long to hold. 【Workout card and history】 After each workout you get a card showing what you trained and how many days you've trained this week. Save it or share it. Your training history is on the home screen. 【Coaches】 Import a plan from a coach and train it with voice cues. Coaches can share plans with their clients. Coach features are optional. 【Free to start, Pro when you need more】 All voice-guided workouts are free, with 1 routine, 3 of your own exercises and 1 reminder a day. Pro is a one-time purchase that removes those limits. 【Workouts run offline】 Voice cues are built in, so workouts need no internet connection and no account, and your own training history stays on your phone. Coach features use the internet only when you use them. See the Privacy Policy for details. Note: this app provides general fitness guidance and is not a substitute for advice from a doctor or physical therapist. If you feel pain or discomfort, stop and consult a professional.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Pocket Posture at every 3 days against MoveCue's fortnightly. MoveCue's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
