I have a small kyphosis and years of working behind a laptop only made it worse for my back. This app helps me correct my posture which I hope will help to reduce the pain and curvature from getting worse.
The website blocking feature is exactly what I needed. I always find myself navigating to Reddit and then losing the flow when working.

Amazing application to force myself to move my body frequently. Would appreciate having more types of exercises during the breaks though. I recommend.
I work a lot and being forced to take a 20 minutes break every 2 hours has been a great help to reduce my work fatigue.
By far the best productivity app I found. It definitely increased my focus and the amount of work I was able to do.
I used to get neck and back pain because my head was heading forward too much. With Hyud I'm forced to sit straight as much as I can and my pain has reduced over the weeks.

Great tool. I struggle to stay focused on my work, and the fact that it blocks websites that could distract me is a game changer for me. Now make it for iPhone please.
My posture on my chair was terrible, even on a good one because I was not noticing it. I like this app because it alerts me when I start to sit wrong and I can quickly fix it.
I work sitted all day and I know it's very bad for my health. Hyud makes me move more frequently and I indeed feel less exhausted than before.
As an entrepreneur, I can't afford wasting my times on distractions so I use the blocker extensively. The other features are also a nice to have.

About Hyud
Hey 👋
I'm Arthur, the founder of Hyud.
I realized that I was spending way too much time working on my computer, sitting at my desk for hours without taking any breaks. This is terrible because it doesn’t just lower productivity but can also lead to serious health issues such as back pain, cancer, heart disease and more, which is a much bigger concern to me.
So I created Hyud to help me take regular breaks while doing a bit of exercise, stretch my body more frequently and finally control and fix my posture. And the results are here. My productivity has increased, I improved my posture, have less back pain than before and I'm pretty sure that my body will thank me on the long run.
Hyud functionalities have then been extended with the ambition to make it the best productivity tool on the market. Should you have any questions or feedback, you can contact us via email or contact me via socials.
