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.

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.

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+

Definitely helps long enough (10 minutes or so} for me to do some social media browsing or quick photo editing work while passengering on car rides. On average I get a quesy 'getting car sick' tummy after about 2 minutes of trying to read anything (longer if I read it out loud), so this is helpful when managing the 'AUX' playlist on a drive or relaying any texted messages/info to my driver. Like I'm having no problem writing this review. For sure give this app a try for yourself- no regretsies!

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!
