About this app

Get rid of Kinetosis (Motion sickness, or Travel sickness) - read or watch movies in your car or on the bus without feeling sick.

UPDATE: While Android users have been enjoying a motion sickness-free experience with this app for years since 2018, the same concept is just coming to Apple iOS with their Vehicle Motion Cues.

:point_right: To prevent the layout from freezing or disappearing, disable all system optimizations and allow the app to run in the background.

Kinetosis typically occurs when traveling in vehicles. It is caused by conflicting motion signals from your inner ear and eyes. This triggers an ancient toxic defense mechanism in our brain that causes dizziness, fatigue, and nausea.

KineStop gets you back on track. It synchronizes your inner ear with your eyes by simulating a horizon on your or your children's mobile devices so you can read or watch movies without distraction.

It takes a few minutes before it helps with ongoing kinetosis. But it works without the need for medication, which can have various side effects such as drowsiness.

KineStop draws the artificial horizon on any screen so you can continue to use your favorite movie player or e-book reader.

definitely helps with motion sickness. but it only provides one mode for free and that one has a line going through the screen. you can see the stuff under the dark part of the line(which is the bottom half if your device) depending on the color you choose. also, if you try to change the color, it only stays that color for about 30 seconds, then it changes back.

Hello, the app provides the functionality for free, so everyone can enjoy the relief from car sickness. The extra design choices are paid. This allows us to keep the app free while still having sources for maintenance, development, and support. We hope this is a better arrangement than forcing a payment to everyone. Thank you for understanding

Works for me! Only disclaimer is that you will almost certainly want to pay the $3 to get the better overlays. The free version is really just to test if it helps you. I've had issues reading in cars (especially sideways) my whole life, so this has been like magic to me. Absolute life-saver on my commute.

Love it! Very quick and easy and has mostly solved my motion sickness issues in the car. The only VERY minor issue I have is that it will occasionally automatically turn on when not in a car but I just use one click in the notifs to turn it off. I consider it better safe than sorry and it's really not an inconvenience considering the benefits. I'd rather click it off when I don't need it versus the icky squint struggle of turning it on when it's already too late. Used it for years A+
