Subjective Visual Vertical turns your iPhone into a simple tool for checking how well a person can set a line to true vertical using sight alone — a quick way to screen for inner-ear (otolith) and balance differences. The app shows a line and uses the phone's motion sensors to know which way is truly vertical. The patient adjusts the line until it looks upright to them, and the app reports how far that is from true vertical, in degrees. TWO WAYS TO TEST • Bucket mode — fix the phone inside the base of a bucket with reusable putty, screen facing in. The patient holds the open rim to their face so the room is hidden, then turns the bucket until the line looks straight. • VR mode — drop the phone into a VR viewer or Google Cardboard. The line is shown to each eye in a split view. The patient turns the line with on-screen buttons or a Bluetooth remote and locks it in when it looks vertical. FLEXIBLE TESTING • Choose the right eye (OD), left eye (OS), both eyes (OU), or all in turn. • Run a single measurement or repeat each condition several times. • Set the trial length and the pause between trials. • Repeated trials are averaged automatically, with the standard deviation shown. CLEAR RESULTS • See the deviation in degrees for each eye, with a simple diagram of the perceived vs. true vertical. • Share the numbers as text, with no image attached. • In bucket mode you can record a photo or video of the trial with the true and perceived vertical lines drawn over it, and a date-and-time label. Media is saved to your own Photo Library. • Customisable line and background colours. • Right eye (OD) listed first, by convention. • Works with a Bluetooth remote so the line can be turned while the phone is sealed in a viewer. • Everything runs on the device. No account, no sign-in, no tracking. IMPORTANT This app is for educational purposes only and should not be used for clinical diagnosis or treatment decisions.

A VERTIGO TRACKER THAT WATCHES WITH YOU VertigoMe keeps one clear record of your vertigo and dizziness and the everyday things around it. Link Apple Health or Health Connect, Garmin, Oura or Polar and your sleep, heart rate and recovery come in automatically. Live weather is logged for your location, because pressure swings are one of the most commonly reported triggers. Link a food app or scan a meal and ingredients like sodium, caffeine and alcohol are noted in your diary. A DIZZINESS DIARY THAT TAKES SECONDS Log a spin by voice, by text, or with one tap from your own list of symptoms, triggers, medicines and reliefs. Say "woke up with the room spinning, took 16mg betahistine" and VertigoMe sorts the details for you. Record the type of dizziness, how long it lasted, the head position that set it off, nausea, hearing changes and what helped. YOUR DAILY RISK SCORE Every trigger and early warning sign you log in the last seven days fills your personal bucket, recent days weighted more than older ones. The home screen gauge shows how full it is today, and a 7-day outlook shows where you are heading. The thresholds are tuned to you and recalibrated weekly against what actually happened, so the gauge learns from your own spins. GUIDED HOME EXERCISES Six guided routines for vestibular rehabilitation, each with step-by-step positions, timers and safety notes: Epley, Semont, BBQ roll, Brandt-Daroff, balance retraining and habituation. The phone's sensors coach your head angle in real time and measure your sway. Run them as daily practice, or from inside a spin log so Insights can track whether they help you. Use the routines your clinician has shown you. INSIGHTS THAT ANSWER BACK The Insights tab turns your diary into patterns: which triggers show up most before your spins, which pairs are risky together, which medicines and reliefs you rated as helping, and how well the risk gauge is matching reality. Ask VertigoMe anything in plain English and it answers from your own data. "What showed up before yesterday's spin?" "How has my sleep been this week?" FOR YOUR DOCTOR The Dizziness Handicap Inventory is built in, so you can retake it and watch the score over time. When it is time for the appointment, a detailed PDF report brings your diary along: frequency, duration, triggers, treatments, trends. FOR THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU Invite a caregiver to witness your spins and log observations on your behalf. You decide what they can see and can revoke access at any time. And on the days you are stuck on the couch, the community is there. Whether you live with BPPV, vestibular migraine, Meniere's disease, vestibular neuritis, labyrinthitis, PPPD or MdDS, VertigoMe gives you one organised place to record and understand your experience. TRY EVERYTHING FREE Your first 14 days include every premium feature automatically. No card details, no auto-renewal, nothing to cancel. The trial just ends, and core tracking stays free.
