After reading the review in The Guardian, I thought this is just the thing for me! I like gadgets, I have terrible posture, and to have something remind me to stop slumping, would be fantastic! So I ordered it.
So it arrived. Its quite clever, you put the discreet magnet on the front of your shirt, then the Lumo Lift itself goes inside. Magnets are available in different colours to blend into your clothes (you'll want this to stop people constantly asking what it is!). It works on its own, up to a point, but really you need the matching app on your Smartphone for it.
And thats where I hit the problem. There is no app for the most popular smartphone platform in the world (Android). I was stumped. I hadn't come across this before. It was iPhone only. Surely they would come out with one soon though? Months passed by, but still no app. So I gave up waiting and sold it for a loss on eBay.
Its my fault for not checking first, but really why on earth did they launch a gadget that didn't support Android?
