Pod is an app to fix your posture with just your AirPods.

Pod uses the accelerometer data in the Airpod pros to track head position, knowing when you have good posture, and pinging you when you start to slouch.

Design Inspiration

I set out to create Pod because I wanted to experiment with designing 3 dimensional icons and interactions through a two dimensional screen. I wanted to make an app that was beautifully designed like a game using 3D, animation, physics, haptics, and sounds.

 

Here’s the video of an early prototype of it working.

I was able to get a pretty polished version of the app deployed onto Testflight and even got a few hundred users signed up and using the app but the upkeep ended up taking too much time so I stopped working on it for a while.
