What is Posture Reminder?
Posture Reminder uses motion data from your AirPods or supported headphones to track how you hold your head. If you lean toward your screen, look down at your phone, or start to slouch, it gently reminds you to sit up straight and maintain good posture.
Problem
Users need to manually check and adjust their posture throughout the day, leading to inconsistency and reliance on memory or passive methods like ergonomic accessories.
Solution
A mobile app that uses motion data from your AirPods or supported headphones to detect slouching or forward head tilt and sends gentle reminders to correct posture in real time.
Customers
Remote workers, office professionals, students, and health-conscious individuals who spend long hours sitting and use AirPods/headphones regularly.
