Physio exercises that feel like a game
Playsio is a camera game for your phone. Prop it up, step back and reach for the targets with your hands. It tracks your movement on the device, so there's nothing to wear and nothing recorded.
Waitlist members get the founding price: €29.99 a year, kept for as long as you stay.

Frequently asked questions
What is Playsio?
Playsio is a physio exercise game for your phone. You prop the phone up, step back, and touch targets on screen with your hands. The front camera tracks your movement on the device, so the game counts every reach without any controller or wearable.
What is a physio game?
A physio game (or exergame) turns repetitive rehabilitation exercises into a game with goals, scores and streaks, so practising every day feels less like a chore. Playsio uses reaching movements that work shoulder and arm range of motion.
Can a phone camera track my exercises?
Yes. Playsio runs a pose-tracking model (Google MediaPipe Pose) on the phone that finds your hands, wrists and shoulders in the front camera image many times a second. Stand one to two metres back so your upper body is in view.
Is my camera video recorded or uploaded?
No. All tracking happens on your phone. Playsio does not record, store or upload camera video.
Does Playsio replace my physiotherapist?
No. Playsio is not a medical device and does not diagnose or treat any condition. It helps you practise movement at home. Check with your physiotherapist or doctor before starting, and stop if anything hurts.
What do I need to play?
An Android phone or iPhone with a front camera, something to prop it against in landscape, and about two metres of space. No controller, wearable, VR headset or gym equipment.

One session a day is free. Playsio Plus costs €1.99 a week, or €29.99 a year at the founding price with a 7-day free trial. People who join at the founding price keep it.
