This app is a game changer!

"This has been the most effective way for me to work on my posture. I work at a desk all day and have chronic neck / nerve pain due to my bad posture. I've tried physical remedies, but they never stick and are easy to forget to do. This app does the trick. It's not perfect, I bought a $15 webcam on amazon so I could put a camera on my center monitor and when I travel I need to reset its "good posture" vs "bad posture" training data, but that takes less than 10 seconds. Once you've done all that, this tool is an amazing reminder to sit up straight. After using it for 3 weeks, I can already tell I am naturally sitting with better posture more often. To the developers: THANK YOU for creating this life changing tool.”

Slouch no more!

"I've had the tendency to lean forward on my keyboard since I started working. This often results in assorted back pain and troubles. After trying various seating arrangements, Posture Reminder has helped me keep a more comfortable / healthier position!. ”

More questions? Email us

1

Why am I not getting posture reminders while Focus Mode is on?

macOS Focus can silence AI Posture Reminder notifications unless the app is allowed in that Focus profile.

  1. Open Settings on your Mac.
  2. Go to Focus.
  3. Select the Focus mode you use for work.
  4. In Allowed Apps, add Posture Reminder.

Once allowed, posture reminders can appear even while Focus Mode is active.

Allow Posture Reminder notifications in macOS Focus Mode

2

Is AI Posture Reminder safe if I am worried about camera privacy?

Yes. AI Posture Reminder is designed so your posture data stays on your Mac.

  • No cloud processing: posture analysis runs locally on device.
  • No recording: the app does not store or upload photos or video.
  • No data resale: your posture data is used only to personalize reminders for you.

The camera is used only for live posture detection, similar to a coach watching your posture in real time without keeping a recording.

3

How do I start AI Posture Reminder automatically when my Mac starts?

You can enable launch at login inside the app.

  1. Open Posture Reminder.
  2. Go to Settings or Preferences.
  3. Turn on Launch at Login.

After that, AI Posture Reminder will open automatically in the background whenever you sign in to your Mac.

4

AI Posture Reminder won't start or can't see me. How do I fix it?

This is usually a camera permission issue.

  1. Open the Settings app on your Mac.
  2. Go to Privacy & Security > Camera.
  3. Make sure Posture Reminder is allowed to access your camera.
  4. Quit and reopen the app.

If the selected camera is disconnected or already in use by another app, reconnect it or switch cameras in Posture Reminder settings.

5

Can I use AI Posture Reminder with my iPhone camera?

There is no iPhone app right now, but you can use your iPhone as the camera for AI Posture Reminder through Apple's Continuity Camera on Mac.

You need a Mac running the latest macOS Tahoe release and an iPhone that supports Continuity Camera and is updated to a current iOS version.

For the best posture tracking results, mount the iPhone at eye level with a stable stand. See our recommended iPhone stands.

6

How much does AI Posture Reminder cost?

You can download AI Posture Reminder from the Mac App Store and start with a full-featured free trial. No credit card is required to begin.

After the trial, plans are $9.99 per month or $99.99 per year. The annual plan includes Family Sharing for up to five people and saves the cost of two monthly payments.

We also offer team and academic pricing. Contact us for a quote.

7

How do I choose the best alert frequency for posture reminders?

You can control how often AI Posture Reminder notifies you after it detects poor posture.

Open Posture Reminder > Preferences, choose your reminder interval, then restart the app to apply the new setting.

If you are just starting, use a shorter interval for faster habit building, then increase it once better posture feels automatic.

8

Does AI Posture Reminder work with an external monitor or webcam?

Yes. AI Posture Reminder works with an external monitor setup as long as you have a camera pointed at you.

You can choose a built-in camera, external webcam, or supported iPhone camera in Settings, then restart the app so the new camera is used for posture tracking.

If you need gear recommendations, see our ergonomic accessories guide.

9

Why do I need to be in front of the camera for posture tracking?

The camera is how AI Posture Reminder understands the difference between your good posture and your slouching posture.

  • On-device privacy: posture analysis runs locally on your Mac.
  • No recording: the app does not store or upload photos or video of you.
  • Real-time reminders: once calibrated, the app can alert you as soon as your posture drifts.

Without a camera view, the app has no signal to measure your posture.

10

How does AI Posture Reminder work?

AI Posture Reminder uses on-device computer vision and a deep neural network to compare your current posture with the calibration examples you record during setup.

It analyzes posture in real time on your Mac, then sends a reminder when it detects slouching or another posture pattern you trained it to catch.

For a technical overview, read how Posture Reminder works.

11

When should I reset my posture calibration data?

You should reset your posture calibration after any setup change that affects how you look on camera.

  • You switched from the built-in camera to an external webcam or iPhone camera.
  • You moved desks, changed monitor height, or switched between sitting and standing.
  • The app suddenly starts missing reminders or marking good posture as slouching.

Recalibration takes about a minute and usually restores accurate posture alerts.

12

What are the system requirements for AI Posture Reminder on Mac?

To run AI Posture Reminder on Mac, you need:

  • A Mac running the latest macOS Tahoe release or newer.
  • A built-in camera, external webcam, or supported iPhone camera through Continuity Camera.

For the most reliable posture tracking, keep your camera angle and desk setup consistent after calibration.

13

Is AI Posture Reminder only available for Mac?

Yes. AI Posture Reminder is currently a Mac app and does not have Windows, iPhone, or Android versions.

It is built for macOS and uses Apple's on-device machine learning stack, including Core ML and computer vision, to analyze posture privately on your Mac.
