"Very useful app, probably the most useful in my too-large collection."
"Hi, Love your app, Love all the variety and the additional exercises. The visual illustrations along with the text explanations are simply excellent by the way, and are really helping me!"
"I am using this more than I’ve used other “break” apps. I like the variety! I like that it works my back, legs, arms, shoulders, neck and even hands, all of which hurt during the course of my sedentary work day. Thank you again!"

Latest reviews of Backache app for iPhone and iPad
For a couple of days the app just showed a screen saying “NULL”. One day it suddenly started to work, but it is limited to 5 exercises. Once in a while it asks you to download 31 extra exercises. Everytime I do it, it says “next time you will see the extra exercise”. But that never happens, and I am forced to keep doing the same 5 exercises.
Ive tried lots of exercise break apps, and really like the easy to follow video, and the variety in this one. Responsive developer, too!
I have been bothered by low back pain brought on by prolonged sitting. This app has helped. It has a nice interface and is easy to use and customize. It provides a gentle reminder to do the (easy and gentle) exercises at your specified frequency. It has helped to cut down on my back pain.
