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.

I didn't think it'd work, but it absolutely does. I'm normally unable to stand looking at my phone for more than a minute or two. I was able to watch several episodes of a show in the car with this app. It's such a lifesaver

Works really well, this is one of the most important apps to exist if you get sick in cars and yet it's so simple. A few apps have issues with interaction but for the most part this is perfect.
