Read full description

Five quiet minutes a day. Core is a guided pelvic floor trainer that fits into real life โ€” private, discreet, and simple enough to keep doing. A calm breathing ring leads every session: squeeze, hold, release. No anatomy diagrams, no noise โ€” just clear guidance and gentle haptics you can follow anywhere, even on the train or at your desk. THREE GUIDED PROGRAMS - Foundations โ€” build awareness and control from the ground up - Postpartum Recovery โ€” rebuild gently, step by step, at your own pace - Strength & Control โ€” a stronger center for sport, posture and daily life BUILT TO KEEP YOU GOING - Streaks, weekly goals and progress you can actually see - Quick Sessions โ€” two minutes, anywhere - Apple Health sync (Mindful Minutes) - Home and Lock Screen widgets - Discreet mode: silent haptics and neutral notifications PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No login. Everything stays on your device. Core never reads your health data and never sends your training anywhere. FREE TO USE Core is free with an optional Pro upgrade. Try Pro free for 3 days, then $14.99/year, or unlock Lifetime once for $24.99. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account. Core is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice. If you have symptoms, pain or concerns, please talk to a doctor or pelvic health physiotherapist โ€” and, after birth, your midwife.

Verdict

The call

Core and Pelva are too close to call on the numbers: across 5 compared parameters โ€” price, ads, in-app purchases and device support among them โ€” neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.
