Keep listening in the apps you already use

Most walks are spent
looking down.

Phones, the pavement, a tired neck. Your head drifts forward a little at a time, and nothing tells you it happened.

And the usual fixes
don’t work on a walk.

Posture apps stay at your desk.

They watch you sit. Walks, where your head drops the most, go unwatched.

A buzz on your phone pulls you further down.

Every reminder asks you to look at the screen, the very thing you were trying to stop.

Tilt alerts cry wolf outside.

Glance at a curb or check the road and they nag. So you turn them off.

So keep your music, podcast or audiobook playing.
Upleaf fixes your posture through it.

Press play,
and just walk.

Play anything, and walk.

Music, a podcast or an audiobook. Sprig stands tall while your head is up.

Upleaf when your head drops: Sprig droops and audio is lowered

Drift, and Sprig droops.

When your head drops, your audio softens until you look up again.
