What you get

You may feel less motion sickness while using your laptop in transit.

Carsick.App gives you a visual reference that follows your vehicle’s movement while you use your laptop. The aim is to reduce the mismatch between what you see and the motion you feel, which may help you work or enjoy screen time with less motion sickness.

You need both the smartphone and laptop apps. After pairing them with a PIN, you place your phone facing the same direction as your laptop screen. Your phone measures the vehicle’s acceleration, and the laptop’s visual pattern responds in real time. The desktop app cannot function without the mobile app.

You can choose between several visual patterns to find one you prefer. If you’re traveling with family or colleagues, you can also connect multiple computers to one phone.

  • More comfortable screen time

    You get motion-responsive visuals intended to reduce motion sickness while you use your laptop during a journey.

  • A pattern you prefer

    You can choose from several dynamic visual patterns rather than stick with a single option.

  • One phone, several laptops

    You can connect your family’s or colleagues’ computers to one mobile device during a shared trip.

Best for

  • You feel motion sick when using your laptop as a passenger
  • You want to work during car, bus, or train journeys
  • You travel with others who also use laptops

Skip it if

You don’t need it if laptop use during travel doesn’t make you motion sick, or you cannot use the required smartphone app.
