Here’s an interesting iPhone app – Upright. If your mom has been at it over and over again with your bad posture, then she might have bought this app for you if the iPhone did exist at that time. The Upright app calibrates to check whether you’re current “posture” is a bad one:
Secure Upright in a shirt pocket, on a lanyard, on your neck, or however best works for you. Assume your optimum posture and then just tap to calibrate. Upright instantly begins tracking your posture. Tap again to pause or to re-calibrate. Upright will alert you when your posture is off track. Choose from vibration (iPhone only), sound, or visual alerts. Configure the slouch-sensitivity and time period before you are alerted to create a posture tracker suited to your needs.
The Upright App retails for $1.99 from the iTunes store. You can check it out here.
