Orbital – Motion Sickness Aid

About this app

Reading in a moving car makes you sick because your eyes see a still page while your inner ear feels every turn and brake. Orbital fixes the mismatch: faint teal dots drift down the left and right edges of your screen, moving with the road — your eyes catch the motion your body already feels, and the nausea lets go.

HOW IT WORKS
• A click-through overlay floats over any app — reading, maps, video.
• Your phone's accelerometer and gyroscope drive the dots in real time.
• Turns, braking and acceleration each get their own cue motion.
• Tune size, speed, color and intensity to stay out of your way.

FREE
• The full on-phone cue overlay, presets and tuning.

ORBITAL PRO (monthly with a 7-day free trial, or one payment for lifetime)
• Stream motion to your Windows laptop over Bluetooth, Wi-Fi hotspot or USB tether — beat motion sickness while working on the big screen. The free Orbital for Windows app draws the same cue there.
• Every cue style, colours and accents, and the advanced tuning options.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account, no ads, no analytics, no cloud.
• Sensor data never leaves your devices — the phone-to-PC link is local only.
• Privacy policy: https://wroughtery.com/orbital/privacy

Works offline. Location permission is optional (used only to sense that you're in a moving vehicle; can be declined).

What’s new

• New guided setup screen — every permission explained, one row each, reopenable anytime from the footer link.
• Permissions are now asked only when a feature needs them, no more stacked dialogs at first launch.
• Bigger default dot size for a clearer cue out of the box.
