Neckee: The Unassuming Posture Savior in Your Pocket

I've got a story to share—one that starts with a stiff neck and ends with a nifty little app. As a developer, I've been there, scrolling through endless code, only to realize my neck has turned into a question mark. The usual suspects? Posture braces and fancy wearables. But let's face it, they're either a hassle or a dent in the wallet.

So, I rolled up my sleeves and created Neckee—a posture buddy that's as unassuming as it gets. Here's the skinny:

The Lowdown on Detection: Neckee's got your back (and neck). It uses your phone's front camera to keep tabs on your neck's dance moves, all without any sneaky photo-taking or data hoarding.

What's in the Bag?

Game-ified Exercises: Think of it as 'Wii Fit' for your neck. Move with the prompts, score points, and maybe even crack a smile.

3D Animal Avatars: Why stare at your mug in the mirror when you can be a cool cat or a wise owl? It's all about keeping it light.

Local Processing: Your face data stays put on your device, chilling like a local, not jetting off to some cloud.

Non-Annoying Reminders: Set a reminder that's more of a nudge than a nag. No red notifications, just a gentle tap on the shoulder.

Your Data, Your Rules: Dive into your exercise stats, see how you've been doing, and keep it all to yourself.

Neckee's not just an app; it's a lifestyle nudge towards better posture. It's the silent cheerleader in your pocket. Give it a whirl and let's keep those necks in check! Here's neckee:https://apps.apple.com/fi/app/neckee/id6475778269
