Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Mert, the solo maker behind Stature. Real talk: I've fought my own posture for years. I've worn a brace (felt like a medieval knight at my desk), clipped a sensor to my shirt (lost it in the laundry, twice), and ignored every reminder app roughly 47 times a day until I deleted them out of guilt. At one point I'm fairly sure my spine filed a formal complaint. None of them ever caught me in the *actual* second I slouched. A timed reminder buzzes an hour too late — damage already done, and now I just feel attacked. Then it clicked: the AirPods in my ears have motion sensors running all day, just sitting there doing nothing. So I went all in on the part I'm proudest of — a real-time head-tracking algorithm that's continuous, fast, and accurate enough to feel your posture drop the instant it happens and buzz you upright before you even notice. No camera, no brace, nothing extra to wear or remember. Just the AirPods you already own. It runs in the background, lives in your Dynamic Island, and even doubles as a focus timer. If you've seen the "fix your posture with AirPods" idea floating around lately — yeah. I've been heads-down building the version that's actually live, and obsessing over making the tracking genuinely good rather than a gimmick. The honest part: I'm one person, and getting an indie app noticed right now is brutal — social media eats small makers for breakfast. So I'm doing the scary thing and just asking: if this resonates, I'd love your support and your most brutally honest feedback (start with the haptic sensitivity — be ruthless). This community backing tiny builders is genuinely the thing that keeps people like me going. It's live on the App Store today. Your turn: what's your villain origin story for bad posture — desk work, doomscrolling, or gaming? 👇

Why is "fix your posture with AirPods" going viral — and does it actually work?

Maker here The "fix your posture with AirPods" idea has been blowing up

lately, and I have a stake in it: I've spent months building Stature an app

that uses the motion sensors already in your AirPods to catch you slouching in

real time. No camera, no brace.
