## Description

Is your neck paying the price for your screen time? 📱<br><br>Meet NudgeUp — your personal posture coach that watches your back (and your <br>neck) so you don&#39;t have to think about it.<br><br>━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━<br>🦴 WHY YOUR POSTURE MATTERS<br>━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━<br>Research shows that tilting your head just 30° forward puts 18–22kg of force <br>on your cervical spine — that&#39;s the weight of a small child sitting on your <br>neck. Do that for hours every day, and you get text neck: chronic stiffness, <br>headaches, and long-term spinal damage.<br><br>NudgeUp exists to stop that from happening.<br><br>━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━<br>🤖 HOW IT WORKS<br>━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━<br>NudgeUp uses a smart dual-engine system:<br><br>📡 SENSOR ENGINE (always-on, battery-smart)<br>Your phone&#39;s accelerometer and gyroscope silently track how you&#39;re holding <br>your device. When a bad angle is detected, NudgeUp knows — without draining <br>your battery.<br><br>📸 CAMERA CHECK (on-demand, 2 seconds)<br>When it&#39;s time for your check-in, a gentle notification arrives. Tap it and <br>the front camera does a quick, private posture scan. You get instant feedback <br>with your exact neck angle and spinal load — and one of Buddy&#39;s cheeky messages <br>to go with it.<br><br>━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━<br>✨ KEY FEATURES<br>━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━<br>🔔 Smart reminders — consistent nudges at YOUR chosen interval (15, 30, 45 or <br>   60 minutes), even when your posture is perfect<br>📊 Daily posture score — track your improvement over time on your dashboard<br>🔥 Streak tracking — build daily habits and keep your streak alive<br>💪 Suggested exercises — personalised neck &amp; shoulder routines<br>🦹 Meet Buddy — our lovable Slouch Monster mascot who keeps things fun<br>🔒 Private by default — camera data never stored, never shared, ever<br>🎭 600+ unique notifications — no two nudges feel the same<br><br>━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━<br>🏆 BUILT FOR REAL LIFE<br>━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━<br>Whether you&#39;re scrolling in bed, working at a desk, or watching Netflix for <br>two hours — NudgeUp keeps running silently in the background and makes sure <br>you don&#39;t forget to check in.<br><br>No gym required. No complicated setup. Just open the app, complete a quick <br>onboarding, set your reminder interval, and let NudgeUp do the rest.<br><br>━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━<br>🔬 SCIENCE-BACKED<br>━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━<br>NudgeUp&#39;s posture engine is built on peer-reviewed research including Hansraj <br>(2014) on cervical spine loads during mobile device use. The spinal load <br>estimates shown in your notifications are grounded in real biomechanics — <br>not guesswork.<br><br>━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━<br>🔐 YOUR PRIVACY<br>━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━<br>• Camera is used only during active posture checks — never in the background<br>• No photos or videos are ever saved or transmitted<br>• All data is encrypted in transit<br>• You can delete your account and all data at any time from the app<br><br>Don&#39;t let the Slouch Monster win. Download NudgeUp and take back your posture.
