Help your back and improve your posture by being alerted whenever you slouch. Upright features a simple and intuitive interface that lets you focus simply on achieving good posture.
Visit our website for a one minute demonstration of how to use Upright.
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.
Now Upright includes tips for improving your posture. (Always consult a physician before beginning a course of exercise.)

Latest reviews of Upright - Posture Alert app for iPhone and iPad
I like how simple this is. Push one button. Done. Im keeping the default sounds because they make me laugh. All this and I might improve my posture too. Love it!
This application does exactly what it says it does. I work from home and sitting at a desk all day can wreck your back, but Upright certainly helps me to be aware of when Im slouching. In fact I didnt realize how bad my posture was until I bought it. I like that its easy to use and to the point...
This app makes sure I still have good posture while Im at work. Even when you are tired after a long day good posture will always help your back
Thanks to Upright my posture has improved and my back pain is gone. Great app!
I didnt realize how bad my posture actually was until I started using Upright, It really lets me know when I begin to slouch. Very easy to use, and you have to love the sound effects :)
