Posture (Dec-2025)

Do you spend hours at your PC and tend to forget about anything else? In fact, it’s only after you have been sitting for hours that you can finally take stock of how your body is feeling. Often, you may have back pain from slouching forward. SitApp is a helpful app that uses your webcam to analyze your posture and detect when you’re slouching in real time. When you are, the app displays a pop up to tell you to sit up straight. It also tracks your posture over time so that you can see your progress over the course of the day or a week. The app works with both sitting and standing desks and you can start and stop the monitoring with just a click of the mouse. You’re given a percentage score of your posture, so you have something to try to beat every time you start your work.

SitApp It’s completely private too; all the computation to detect if you are slouching happens on your computer – your webcam feed is never sent over the internet or ever available to any third party. To get going with SitApp all you have to do is download and install the app then follow the prompts to set up your posture monitoring. It’s all free. Type the following address: https://sitapp.app/download into the address field of your browser then press Enter. Next, click Download for Windows to download SitApp. Double click it from your Downloads folder to install it. That’s all for this month’s tip.
