Snap two photos. Postural calculates your Postural Age across five biomechanical markers and prescribes a personalized 3-minute daily stretch routine — all processed on your device.
iOS 18+ · Privacy-first · Photos never leave your phone
Biological age: 29 · +5 years from posture
No wearables. No equipment. Just your phone and two minutes to set up.
Stand naturally and take one front-view and one side-view photo. Postural captures five frames per view and applies per-joint median smoothing to remove noise and deliver consistent measurements.
Apple Vision maps 13 body landmarks across your photos. Five biomechanical markers — head tilt, shoulder position, trunk alignment, and more — are scored to calculate your single Postural Age number.
A personalized set of stretches matched to your specific posture issues is assembled from 19 curated expert routines. Each session takes 3 minutes. Real measurable improvement appears at Day 28.
Postural is designed for desk-bound professionals who want to understand and improve their posture without a clinic visit.
Apple Vision Framework detects 13 body landmarks across 5 sequential frames. Per-joint median smoothing eliminates noise for consistent, reliable measurements every time.
Five biomechanical markers each contribute years to your Postural Age. Watch your number fall week over week as consistent daily stretching improves each marker.
19 curated stretches from expert creators, each matched to a specific postural issue. Your daily routine is assembled from only the exercises your body actually needs.
Day 7 reveals your baseline and streak. Day 28 is where real postural change appears — backed by a 2024 BMC meta-analysis. Honest progress, not optimistic projection.
Every posture photo is stored locally with iCloud backup explicitly excluded per file. An automated test enforces this flag on every build — it's a technical guarantee, not marketing.
Five peer-reviewed physiotherapy papers underpin the scoring thresholds. Postural Age is a wellness trend indicator — not a medical diagnosis — and this is always clearly disclosed to users.
Each metric maps a specific postural deviation to a maximum age penalty, grounded in published physiotherapy research.
Forward head posture — how far your ear sits ahead of your shoulder when viewed from the side.
Max +6 yrsRounded or protracted shoulders — the degree to which your shoulder rolls forward from neutral.
Max +5 yrsTrunk lean and sagittal balance — the angle formed through your shoulder, hip, and knee landmarks.
Max +4 yrsLeft-to-right shoulder height difference — a reliable marker of lateral muscular imbalance.
Max +3 yrsSideways head tilt — the angle your ear-to-ear line makes with true horizontal, viewed from the front.
Max +2 yrsPostural stores all scan photos exclusively in on-device storage. Each file is flagged at the filesystem level to exclude it from iCloud backup — making this a literal guarantee, not a marketing claim. An automated test verifies the backup-exclusion flag after every single write operation, so it can never be accidentally removed in a future update.

Postural Age is your chronological age plus a penalty contributed by each of five measurable postural deviations — forward head posture, rounded shoulders, trunk lean, shoulder asymmetry, and lateral head tilt. Each marker can add between 2 and 6 years depending on severity, for a maximum total penalty of +20 years. It's a wellness trend indicator designed to give you a motivating, trackable number — not a clinical diagnosis.
Postural uses Apple Vision Framework's 2D body pose detection, validated through a controlled 3-iteration noise-floor study. Measurements are 2D only — the app cannot capture depth, rotation, or muscle tone. All five scoring thresholds are grounded in published physiotherapy research. Accuracy is affected by lighting, phone positioning, and clothing. Treat your score as a consistent trend indicator across time, not an absolute clinical measurement.
No. All posture photos are stored exclusively on your device in the app's Application Support directory. Each file is flagged at the filesystem level to exclude it from iCloud backup. This is enforced by an automated test that runs on every build — the flag cannot be accidentally removed in a future update. Your photos are never uploaded to any server.
Postural is designed for desk-bound knowledge workers (ages 25–55) who spend long hours at a computer and want to understand and gradually improve their posture. It is not intended for minors or clinical use. If you experience pain, injury, or dysfunction, consult a physiotherapist — Postural is a wellness companion, not a replacement for professional assessment.
Postural is currently in active development with a target launch of late 2026. Join the waitlist above and we'll notify you the moment it's live on the App Store — one email, no spam, unsubscribe anytime.
No. Postural is a consumer wellness app, not a medical device. Postural Age is a trend indicator based on geometric measurements from your smartphone camera. It does not account for pain, strength, hypermobility, or individual anatomy variations. Always consult a qualified healthcare provider for clinical assessment of posture-related pain or dysfunction.
