Gestura: Gesture Music Player

Wave to play. Point to skip. Gestura reads your hand gestures with the front camera, fully on-device, so you can control your music without touching your iPhone.

Gestura is a music player for the moments when your hands are busy. Hold a hand pose in front of the front camera and Gestura plays, pauses, skips, or favorites the current track — no touching, no talking.

HANDS-FREE CONTROL Open Palm — Play / Pause Point Right — Next Track Point Left — Previous Track Thumbs Up — Add to Favorites Thumbs Down — Remove from Favorites

Cooking with flour on your hands? Mid-set at the gym? Elbow-deep in a repair? Raise a hand and keep the music moving.

RECOGNITION THAT RUNS ENTIRELY ON YOUR IPHONE Gestura uses a hand-pose classifier trained specifically for these five gestures, running on-device with Core ML and Vision. There is no server, no account, and no network call in the recognition path — every frame is analyzed on your iPhone and immediately discarded.

To keep accidental triggers down, a gesture only fires once you have held it briefly and the model is confident, with a short cooldown afterwards. Three sensitivity presets let you tune that trade-off: • Relaxed — longer hold, highest confidence, fewest false triggers • Standard — a balanced default • Snappy — fastest response for when you want it to react instantly

A LIBRARY PLAYER, NOT JUST A DEMO Gestura is a complete player for the music already on your iPhone: • Home screen with recently played and quick access to your library • Browse by album, artist, genre, or song • Favorites and recently played • Create and edit your own playlists • Search across your whole library • Now Playing with artwork, scrubbing, queue, shuffle, and repeat • Mini-player that follows you across every tab • Lyrics when your track has them • Haptic and on-screen feedback confirming every gesture

PRIVACY BY DESIGN • The camera is used only to recognize gestures — video is never recorded, saved, or transmitted • Recognition happens entirely on-device • The camera stops the moment Gestura leaves the foreground • Gesture control is optional and can be switched off at any time; the player works normally without the camera • No accounts, no tracking, no analytics

GOOD TO KNOW Gestura plays music that lives in your device's Music library — songs you own, and Apple Music tracks you have downloaded for offline listening. Like every third-party player, it cannot play or control other streaming apps, which keep playback inside their own apps.

Gesture control needs the front camera and works best with your iPhone propped up, your hand in frame, and reasonable lighting.
