    Your Partner in Perfect Posture

    Welcome to Posture Ease! Your wearable device is a powerful tool for building postural awareness, and the companion app is the command center that unlocks its full potential. This comprehensive guide will walk you through every feature, from initial setup to advanced data tracking, ensuring you get the most out of your journey to a healthier spine and a more confident you.

    Step 1: Getting Started & First Pairing

    Before you begin, ensure your Posture Ease device is fully charged using the provided USB-C cable. A full charge typically takes about 90 minutes and will last for several days.

    1. Download the App: Find the Posture Ease app on the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
    2. Enable Bluetooth: Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone.
    3. Create Your Account: Open the app and follow the simple on-screen instructions to create your account.
    4. Pairing: The app will automatically search for your device. Simply bring your charged device close to your phone to complete the pairing process. It's designed to be seamless and should take less than two minutes.

    Step 2: Calibration - The Most Important Step

    Calibration is the key to accurate and personalized posture tracking. This process tells the app what your ideal posture feels and looks like.

    1. Placement: Attach the Posture Ease device to your upper back, directly on the skin, using the provided hypoallergenic adhesive. It should be placed vertically along your spine, between your shoulder blades.
    2. Find Your Neutral Spine: Sit or stand in what you feel is your ideal, comfortable, upright posture. Don't over-correct by puffing out your chest or being unnaturally stiff. Just be comfortably tall.
    3. Calibrate in the App: In the app's main dashboard screen, tap the 'Calibrate' button. Hold your position for a few seconds. The app will now set your current posture as the baseline "green zone." All future tracking and alerts will be based on this unique position. We recommend recalibrating briefly each time you put the device on to ensure maximum accuracy.

    Exploring the Core Features

    The Dashboard: Your Real-Time Mirror

    The app's dashboard provides a real-time, color-coded gauge of your posture.

    • Green Zone: Your ideal, calibrated posture.
    • Yellow Zone: A slight slouch. The app will begin a countdown (which you can set in settings).
    • Red Zone: A significant slouch. If you remain in the yellow or red zone past your set delay, you'll receive a gentle vibration. This immediate visual feedback is a powerful tool for building mind-body awareness.

    Settings: Customize Your Experience

    In the 'Settings' menu, you can tailor the experience to your needs.

    • Vibration Intensity: Adjust the strength of the device's vibration.
    • Alert Delay: Set the delay (e.g., 15, 30, or 60 seconds). This is how long you need to be in a slouched position before an alert is triggered, preventing unnecessary notifications for brief, natural movements.
    • Training Mode & Tracking Mode: Choose between receiving vibratory feedback (Training) or just silently tracking your data (Tracking).

    History: Track Your Progress

    Navigate to the 'History' tab to see your progress quantified. The app provides intuitive daily, weekly, and monthly charts. You can see what percentage of your time was spent in good posture, how many times you slouched, and even identify the times of day you tend to struggle the most. This data helps you pinpoint problematic habits and see tangible proof of your improvement.

    Exercise Library: Your Personal Physio

    The 'Exercises' tab contains a curated library of stretches and strengthening movements recommended by certified physiotherapists. These exercises are specifically designed to combat the stiffness caused by prolonged sitting and to build the core and back muscles that support a healthy posture. Each exercise includes clear instructions, animations, and recommended durations.

    The Power of AI Coach (Coming Soon)

    Soon, your app will be enhanced with a Gemini-powered AI coach. This groundbreaking feature will go beyond raw data to provide personalized insights, weekly progress reports with motivational messages, and adaptive exercise recommendations based on your specific progress and goals.

    Take time to explore every facet of the app and customize its settings to fit your unique lifestyle. It's more than just an app; it's your personal posture coach, guide, and cheerleader, available 24/7.
