Kodgem Straight Posture Corrector Trainer Review

Really helped my daughter train her back to stay upright and keep from looking slouched. This is helping her achieve that goal. The battery also lasts a long time. It's not good for walking, she's more aware of her posture now

As with most devices this is something you have to make an effort to use. I’m at that age where my posture has been bad for years. I’m 6’4” and have slouched most of my life. It’s not easy to change your way of standing or sitting. This device does do what it says but it’s very finicky when you don’t do it right. For the first week I was setting it off constantly and it was annoying. It almost wanted me to stop using it. The second week it got better and I’m hoping to see it get better from now on.
I still find myself reverting to my old ways of bad posture, but I’m hoping it gets better with time.

Product is well made and packaged well. Easy to follow instructions. I’ve noticed that the alerts have decreased considerably since I have been wearing it during work.

I have quite a few issues with this thing. it really isn't necessary to have an app on your phone. It could just as easily simply buzz when you slouch. Almost no real instructions, you have to figure it out yourself. I also found the vibration to be so mild that I didn't always notice it. That could just be me and lack of sensitivity on my back. The device does indicate when you slouch, it's just not for me.

I’ve used posture correctors before to varying results. Usually, they end up being too cumbersome to use long term and I end up putting them in storage. With this device, it relies on you to be in charge of your posture rather than an actual brace.

It’s a pretty nifty device. It lets you know when your posture is starting to slouch so you can correct it yourself. It’s very non-invasive compared to a tight brace you have to wrap around yourself. If you’re someone who works over a desk for long periods of time, this will def help you out if you’ve been experiencing neck and back pain from poor posture

The only thing I don’t like about this device is that the sticky pads are single-use. Eventually, you’ll run out of them which then you’ll have to buy more. Just some thing to keep in mind when you’re factoring in costs to use this

This started out kind o fluke a joke- but it seriously works. It is really annoying the first day or two- but it quickly starts to retrain you in how you sit, stand, and move.
It was easy to pair via Bluetooth and easy to setup on the app. It applied nicely and didn’t l irritate my skin, even though many adhesives do. It vibrates enough to get your attention, however, it is not loud enough to notify surrounding coworkers or family/friends- only you. After about the 3rd day- it was going off less because I was sitting straighter and by day 5 I noticed how much taller I was standing, so overall I’d say it works well!

The posture corrector is something that I can always use in my day to day life. I have tendency to lose my posture and slouch, so much so that I have a poor gait. So I have noticed that this device reminds me right away when I slouch.
Another hi tech feature is it's connectibility with an app on the phone, in order to measure progress. Of course I would make progress of this thing would continuously remind me by buzzing on my back. Good product.

I misunderstood what this was and I already have a similar one. I really don't like that the unit is supposed to stick to my back and wish there was some way to mechanically hang it there.

I could never get it to actually stick to my back. I tried washing the spot between my shoulders and drying it really well. I tried a different sticky pad, but no matter what I did, it still wouldn't stick. It does vibrate when you hold it, so I guess that function works.

does exactly what it says it will do. the vibration is enough to get your attention but not too much to where its annoying. a few times it did vibrate when it shouldnt have, however i was at work typing so i figure the movement is why. the adhesive sticks well and is reusable but doesnt wear out quickly. i have worn everyday since getting it and it is still just as sticky as when i opened it. i also notice i catch myself when i am not wearing it and i sit correctly.

I recently received the Kodgem Straight Posture Corrector Trainer for Women & Men and was excited to try it out. The product arrived in a nice box with a charger, which was a nice touch. However, my excitement quickly turned into frustration once I tried to wear it.

Although the product looked easy to use, I found the directions to be insufficient and was unable to determine if I was wearing it correctly or not. There were also exercises included, but the directions for them were equally insufficient. I tried to follow them, but wasn't sure if I was doing them correctly, which was a big letdown.

Unfortunately, I found the Kodgem Straight Posture Corrector Trainer to be less user-friendly than I expected. Within an hour of wearing it, I gave up and took it off. It's disappointing because I was hoping for more support in my posture training, but the lack of guidance made it difficult for me to use the product effectively.

Overall, I wouldn't recommend the Kodgem Straight Posture Corrector Trainer unless the company improves the instructions and provides more user-friendly guidance.

So far I have found that the device works pretty well. Only issue I have is if my back is straight and I'm leaning forward, it'll still go off. It's not a super big issue and I'd imagine it's just a limitation with how the tech works, but it's worth mentioning.

An astonishingly new innovative back brace to overcome traditional belt way of back brace. An easy to use, almost invisible and doesn't need to compromise your outfit style to wear this. A smart way to straight up whenever you slouch helps in getting back into correct posture. A tech notch device also have an app to track the progress. A single device can be used for both men and women.

I'm not sure why an app on my phone is necessary for something to vibrate and let me know that I'm slouching? Especially when most of the time it seems to have an issue connecting with my phone. It would be nice if there was an option to use the device without a phone connection.

Other than this, the device comes with few instructions, but once you figure it out and do have connectivity with your phone, it does what it says. You'll get a little vibration feel if you begin to slouch, reminding you to focus on your posture. I'm just not convinced that it's worth all the effort.

I have scoliosis in my upper and lower back so I never am straight. I lean to the right on a good day at a 30 degree angle which pushes my whole left side forward. Very impressive device. Easy to set up with app on apple phone, I was amazed that it picked up the device from just downloading and opening app. Came with informative pamphlets, a website to look up and the listing has an informative description as well as photos. The device came with extra packets to adhere it to the back and a charging cord. It vibrated every time I moved or leaned a bit but I am probably not a good candidate considering I have scoliosis. I will use again while sitting on computer, sewing and exercising just because curious how much the device will vibrate and let me know to sit or stand straight.

This trainer comes with very little instruction. You kind of have to figure it out as you go, but it does vibrate when I slouch which reminds me to sit up straighter. So it's doing it's job.
What happens: download app, press button to turn on trainer, when it flashes blue connect to phone via Bluetooth. Use enclosed sticky pads to place in your upper back between your shoulder blades. You can set your "straight" posture and from there, every time you slouch, it will vibrate to remind you to sit up straight.
Not a fan of having to download yet another app on my phone, and think it would work just as effectively if I could just turn it on and place it on my back without an app.
I've worn it during my office day, and it's frequently "reminded" me that I am slouching. I must have been doing that a lot because sitting up straight today has made my back sore, lol.

This product is very easy to use. You do need to put an app on a device and it was not charged when it arrived. So after I downloaded the app and charged it, it was a breeze to set up. The "tape" used to attach it to your back/neck area is hypoallergenic and did not cause a rash. If you start to hunch over, the device will vibrate at you so you correct your posture. Very easy to use and set up. I would recommend for anyone who needs to work on correcting their posture.

I have used the products for the past week. The biggest issue for me is it barely can connect to my phone. At least 90% of the time, it cannot. For the a couple time it was successfully connected, the app is not stable, freeze or keep saying syncing data. The device it self works. However, It kind of reminds me too much. It can detect gesture change in seconds and reminds. I am not sure it is a good thing or bad thing. I would prefer reminding me if I bend my neck/back for a while, not just occasionally lower my head. I also tried wear it while playing badminton. It constantly reminds me. Also with sweat, the device fell off. I think the device does works for remind me to sit straight when siting before computer for a long time. It is easy to wear and calibrate. Good battery life. However there are many places need to improve.

Compared to using a standard back brace, I feel that this product is a lot more innovative and effective. Usually, you use a back brace to help correct your posture but you don't want to become too reliant on it. This posture corrector basically gives you a nudge to correct your posture yourself, helping you build up a healthier habit for the long term.

To start, the product box comes with a tamper tape, which lets you know if it's a brand-new product or not. Even though it already comes sealed, a tamper tape is still a nice addition to have on a product like this to give you better peace of mind. The instruction manuals are clear and precise. One manual is for the device and the other is how to connect with the app.

The device itself is fairly straightforward to use. It's a one-button touch for every function and the light indicators are not overly bright so the device hides well even under a thin layer of clothing. Due to its small design, it's very low profile and can be worn out in public and you can turn off the vibrations in the app if you don't want the noise. There are a lot of replacement tapes that come with the product: 10 replacements and 1 already taped onto the device. The tape sticks well onto my back and I didn't experience any allergic reaction to it being taped to my skin. The vibrations feel light like a phone vibrating in your pocket.

Regarding the app, it is very aesthetically pleasing to use. The designs are great and the features are straightforward and simple. You can set the default posture you want with the app, do a training session, and turn off/on the device vibration. The little robot in the app also gives you a visual when you move with the device on, which is pretty cute.

You do have to sign up on the app to take advantage of the full features of the device. I'm not a fan of having to sign up for apps but I had to in order to test out this product so just keep that in mind. There is currently no option on the app to sign in as a "Guest" so I would suggest not picking this product if this is important to you. I also had some issues connecting the device with the app, which made the setup process slightly more painful. The app kept stating that the device was disconnected during the setup. I'm not including my rating based on this issue since I feel that it's an app-level issue more than a product-level issue. However, if you experience this issue, resetting the app seems like a good enough solution since that is what I did and it seemed to work just fine.

All in all, I'm very happy with this product. I hope the app will continue to be maintained and be improved further in the future. I would recommend giving this device a go if you want to move away from the traditional back brace.

I have pretty bad scoliosis, so I was afraid my crooked back would set this thing off constantly, but it seems to work perfectly fine, crooked back and all! It's super simple to download the app and get it hooked up. The device connects to your back with a little adhesive (which doesn't bother my extremely sensitive skin and actually stays on when I sweat), and it connects to my phone via bluetooth. From the app, it's very easy to calibrate the device (you basically just tell it which way is upright), and set your preferred # of seconds and level of slouch before it'll buzz at you. The only downside is that it's basically just set to be perpendicular to the floor, so if I'm working out and want accountability on my plank form, I have to recalibrate it from a plank position. That's honestly a pretty minor complaint in the grand scheme of how easy and sensitive this is! It's super lightweight, so I completely forget that I'm wearing it until I begin to slide into a hunch as I get comfy at my computer or zone into my phone. The vibration doesn't hurt or anything (similar to a phone buzz), but it definitely gets my attention enough to sit back up straight. Also love that the app shows the battery life!

This trainer does exactly what it says it does and that is to train and correct your posture. Now, using this trainer does not correct your posture overnight and it will take time to correct it fully. This trainer is nice cause you can pair it to your phone to get your progress and feedback. It's not hard to put on, just make sure the spot it is going on is dry and free from any lotion and oils, then just peel and stick. You can carry on with any activities you do during the day or night without any discomfort. When you slump or slouch there is an uncomfortable vibration that happens but it doesn't hurt, it just makes up sit straight up and say oh ok(lol). If you're looking for something that's not painful but will help you with your posture, I recommend this trainer.
