Podsture vs Plumb

Build better posture habits with Podsture — your smart posture companion for work, study, and everyday focus. Spending long hours at a desk, looking down at your screen, or leaning forward without noticing it? Podsture helps you become more aware of your posture in real time by monitoring your head position and gently reminding you when you start to slouch. Using supported AirPods or your device camera, Podsture can track your head and neck alignment while you work, read, study, or focus. When your posture drifts, you’ll receive a subtle alert so you can correct yourself before poor posture becomes a habit. Posture is not just about sitting straight. Better posture can help you feel more confident, stay focused, reduce unnecessary strain, and build healthier daily routines. Podsture makes posture awareness simple, personal, and easy to fit into your day.

Sit tall, without thinking about it. Plumb is a calm, private posture-awareness companion. It learns the comfortable "tall" you set for yourself, gently notices when your head drifts forward, and nudges you to ease back — at your desk, or hands-free through your AirPods. A prompt to notice, not a verdict. Plumb learns your neutral, not a textbook ideal — and the fastest way to lose your trust would be to overclaim, so it stays plain-spoken about what it can and can't do. TWO WAYS TO USE IT Hands-free with AirPods — the everyday mode. Plumb reads your head position from compatible AirPods or Beats, so your phone can stay pocketed or locked. A soft tone cues you the moment you drift past your own threshold, and goes quiet the instant you ease back. Camera at your desk — the screen-attended alternative. The front TrueDepth camera reads your head position at desk distance — and your shoulders when they're in view. Frames are processed in the moment and immediately discarded — never previewed, saved, or uploaded. It can't see your lower back, and we won't pretend otherwise. CALM BY DESIGN • A gentle nudge — a soft tone, a tap, or both. It gets slightly more insistent on a long slump, and stops the moment you ease back. • Breathing and small shifts inside your neutral zone never count. • A "held tall" timer tracks your time in a comfortable position. • A stylised living figure reflects how you're holding your head — no camera image or video is ever stored or shown back. • Insights answers one honest question: am I improving? A clear average, an honest change once there's enough history, and quiet days left as blank space, never guessed. • Learn — six short, evidence-anchored reads on why noticing your posture matters, each with its limits stated plainly. YOUR POSTURE NEVER LEAVES YOUR PHONE • Everything is analysed on your device. There are no Plumb servers and no backend — there's nothing to send. • No account, ever. No sign-up, no email, no login. • No ads, no trackers, no analytics, no third-party SDKs. • iCloud sync is off by default and opt-in; it goes only to your own private iCloud. • Apple Health is write-only — Plumb can log a Mindful Minutes session and never reads your health data. SIMPLE, TIME-METERED PRICING Time is the only free meter — no feature walls. Free, forever: one check-in a day across both modes, up to five minutes, with the full nudge experience, the pain log, your two-week Insights window, and the whole Learn library.
