Quick intake
A short set of questions about which movements set you off points at the likely affected ear and canal — because the right maneuver depends on getting that right first.
The most common vertigo has a fix that takes under five minutes — but it only works at the right angle. EarSteady reads your phone's motion sensors to coach you through proven repositioning movements in real time: green when you're aligned, red when you need to adjust.

Built with vestibular therapists. A live, guided session — not another video to squint at while the room tilts.
The gap
Urgent care prescribes meds and tells you to wait it out. Physical therapy means weeks of $200 appointments. So most people end up on the floor at 2am, replaying a maneuver video and guessing whether their head is tilted far enough.
That guess is exactly where home attempts fail. The repositioning movement only relocates the crystals when your head passes through specific angles, held for the right time, on the correct side. Miss the angle and nothing happens — or it gets worse.
EarSteady turns the one variable you can't feel into something you can see.
How it works
Four steps, all driven by your phone's sensors and a calm voice — so you can keep your eyes closed when the spinning is at its worst.
A short set of questions about which movements set you off points at the likely affected ear and canal — because the right maneuver depends on getting that right first.
As you move into each position, your phone's motion sensors — and, on the upright steps, an optional camera — track your tilt against clinical angle targets. Green means aligned; red means adjust. No more guessing from a video.
Hands-free prompts walk you through each position and time every hold, so the crystals have a chance to settle and move on — eyes closed, at your pace.
Dizziness can linger for days after the crystals are back in place. A gentle balance-rehab progression helps your system recalibrate and tracks how you're improving.
Why EarSteady
The condition
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is the most common cause of vertigo. Tiny calcium-carbonate crystals (otoconia) that normally sit in one part of your inner ear break loose and drift into one of the three semicircular canals. When you tip your head — rolling over in bed, looking up — those crystals move the fluid and your brain reads it as the world spinning.
The episodes are short but intense, and they recur. The good news: repositioning movements like the Epley and Semont maneuvers guide the crystals back where they belong, often within a few minutes. EarSteady exists to help you perform those movements accurately at home — and to tell you when something looks like it needs a clinician instead.

For comparison, a single in-clinic repositioning session typically runs around $200 — and BPPV usually means several.
EarSteady is a wellness and education tool — not a medical device, and not a diagnosis. The intake screens for red flags (sudden hearing loss, severe headache, double vision, weakness, vertigo after a head injury) and tells you when to seek care instead of self-treating. If your symptoms are severe, new, or don't fit BPPV, see a clinician.
Questions
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common cause of vertigo. Tiny calcium crystals in your inner ear drift into one of the balance canals, so certain head movements trigger short, intense spinning. It's not dangerous, but it can be debilitating — and it often responds to a simple repositioning movement that guides the crystals back out.
Your phone already has a gyroscope and accelerometer. EarSteady reads them to measure the angle and tilt of your head in real time as you move, then shows green when you're aligned with the target position and red when you need to adjust — the part that's almost impossible to judge on your own from a video. On the upright steps you can optionally turn on the front camera for a more precise head-angle reading; either way, sensor and camera data are processed on your device and never leave your phone.
No. EarSteady is a wellness and education tool, not a medical device, and it does not diagnose or treat any condition. It's built to help you follow well-established repositioning movements more accurately at home and to flag warning signs that mean you should see a clinician. Always consult a qualified professional about dizziness.
A video can show you the steps, but it can't tell whether your head is actually at the right angle — and angle precision is the single thing that makes the maneuver work or fail. EarSteady measures your real position live and corrects you, then guides timing for each hold. It also helps point at the likely affected side first, because the wrong side won't help.
EarSteady is available now on Android — get it on Google Play. iOS is next; join the early-access list and we'll email you the moment it's ready, and early members get founding-member pricing.
EarSteady is designed to be reachable in a flare-up: a single guided session is planned at $4.99, with a $9.99/month plan for ongoing access, tracking, and the rehab progression. Compare that to a typical $200 in-clinic session.
