Unbend

In development

A few minutes of movement, right at your desk

Unbend asks where you feel stiff, then guides you through a short routine with a 3D figure that shows every movement. Seated or standing, no equipment.

In development for iPhone. Not yet in the App Store.

Unbend’s Today screen suggesting Shoulder unwind

Twelve routines for seven parts of the body. All of them work offline, and your history stays on your phone.

Start with where you feel it

Neck, shoulders, back, hips, wrists, eyes or energy. Today suggests one routine and a few more for later, each with its length and whether you do it seated or standing.

Follow the figure

Each step shows a clay figure on a chair doing the movement, with a count, a short cue and the step you are on. Breathing is paced in for four and out for six.

  • Steps from 20 to 30 seconds
  • Pause, skip back or skip ahead
  • Ends with a short summary
