The break reminder you can't fake.
Most reminders are easy to ignore. ErgoGuard opens your camera and uses on-device AI to watch you actually do the exercise — you can't dismiss the alarm until you've completed your reps.
You dismiss reminders. ErgoGuard watches you move.
The gap between a notification and an actual stretch is where every other app loses you. Here's how ErgoGuard closes it.
How it works
Three steps to a body that actually moves
Set your rhythm
Choose how often you want to move, your work hours, and which exercises to cycle through.
Get nudged
When it's time, ErgoGuard fires a notification. Tap it and the guided exercise screen opens.
Move to dismiss
Your front camera and on-device AI count your reps in real time. Hit your target and the break is logged.
No camera, or the AI can't track? A manual Count Repfallback keeps you moving so you're never stuck.
Features
Everything you need to break the sitting habit
Pose-verified reps
On-device MoveNet AI tracks your skeleton and counts real repetitions — it knows standing from sitting, and only counts proper form.
7 desk-friendly exercises
Squats, Arm Raises, Neck Stretches, Shoulder Shrugs, Calf Raises, Torso Twists, and Desk Push-ups. Mix 1–3 per break.
Smart scheduling
Set your interval, work-hours window, and active days of the week. No nags on weekends.
Live on-screen coaching
Each exercise has clear setup and movement cues, plus a real-time skeleton overlay so you see what the AI sees.
Seated options
Neck Stretches and Shoulder Shrugs work without standing up, for when you can't (or won't) get up.
Guided neck routine
A 3-part guided flow — Side Tilts, Head Rotations, and Nod Up & Down — cued one movement at a time.
Progress & history
Every break is logged with reps, duration, and completion status. See your day's stats and full session history.
100% private & on-device
Pose detection runs entirely on your phone. Your camera feed is never uploaded or stored.
Manual fallback
If the camera can't track — bad lighting, no permission — a “Count Rep” button keeps the workout going.
Personalized & adaptive
Optional name for a personal greeting, and rep detection adapts to your body's resting posture instead of rigid thresholds.
