About this app

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

Kinetosis typically happens when travelling in vehicles. It is cause by conflicting motion signals from your inner ear and eyes. This triggers and ancient toxic defense mechanism in our brain which induces dizziness, fatigue and nausea.

KineStop puts you back on track. It puts your inner ear in sync with your eyes by simulation a horizon on your or yours kids mobile device so that you can read or watch movies without the hassle.

It takes few minutes before it helps with an ongoing Kinetosis. But it works without the need of medication which may have various side effects such as drowsiness.

KineStop draws the artificial horizon on any screen so you can keep using your favorite Movie player or e-Book reader.

Ratings and reviews

I was dubious about the app concept, but I suffer from terrible motion sickness so I gave it a go. I was very impressed with the app's ability to dramatically reduce my motion sickness when using my phone in a car. It still doesn't completely alleviate all symptoms, but it dramatically lengthened the time before I experienced symptoms and their severity. Sadly, I still can't be productive throughout my ENTIRE commute, but this app buys me at least 30 minutes of screentime — up from 5 minutes!

Love it! Very quick and easy and has seriously 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+

I love this app, and definitely notice a difference when using it in the car. The only suggestion I have would be to allow for a customizable view which would allow me to find a setting that works best for comfort, and screen color (select background color, pattern density, etc.).
