A posture coach you already own
What you get
Stance was built for exactly this.
The core features that make Stance different from the generic alternatives.
Real posture sensing
Reads your iPhone's accelerometer and gyroscope to catch an actual slouch — not a timer guessing on a schedule.
Sub-5-second haptic nudge
Slump and the phone in your pocket buzzes within a few seconds, so the correction lands while you're still slouching.
10-second calibration
Sit upright, tap once, and hold — Stance learns your baseline and re-calibrates when you change where the phone sits.
Three placements
Works with the phone in a shirt or chest pocket, on a desk stand, or clipped — it detects tilt wherever you keep it.
Honest streaks, zero nags
The only notification is a real slouch event; streaks count good-posture days, not days you opened the app.
Slouch history and trends
See a daily timeline of when slouching peaks and a weekly trend that answers whether you're actually improving.
