poise
Your AirPods as a posture coach, fully on-device.
A native macOS menu bar app that reads head motion from your AirPods' built-in sensors, learns your upright baseline, and nudges you when you start to slouch. No camera, no cloud. The motion data never leaves your Mac.
A SwiftUI menu bar app that taps the AirPods' CMHeadphoneMotionManager, calibrates an upright baseline, and watches for sustained forward tilt. Everything stays local.
