Our patented PureTone Motion transforms your phone into a contactless motion sensor
PureTone Motion uses the phone’s speaker to emit a constant, high-frequency tone above human hearing range and analyzes the signal received by the microphone to detect nearby movements.
The speaker vibrates the air near your phone
Movements reflect energy to the microphone

How far away can Motionscape detect movements?
Motionscape works best within a 1m/3ft range. The motion sensing has high sensitivity, so it can detect other movements near you.
Does Motionscape use my camera?
No, Motionscape does not use the phone’s camera. The app’s PureTone Motion technology uses the phone’s speaker to emit a constant, high-frequency tone above human hearing range and analyzes the signal received by the microphone to detect nearby movements.
Is Motionscape safe to use?
Yes. Motionscape plays a very quiet, high-frequency tone which most people cannot hear. The energy projected is much quieter than many sounds from other electronic devices and general ambient noise.
Can I wear headphones while using Motionscape?
Motionscape is powered by unique technology that senses movements which requires the use of both the microphone and speakers on your device. Unfortunately, this technology is not compatible with headphones or bluetooth devices (yet...). However, we are actively investigating ways to allow external devices to be used at the same time as the app is running.
How is Motionscape different from other relaxation apps?
Motionscape is the first ever relaxation app to use immersive, contactless motion-sensing technology. Providing a dose of stress relief and fun, 91% of testers reported feeling more calm and 79% said they felt less stressed after using Motionscape.*
Unlike most other apps that put all their best features behind a paywall, Motionscape has a generous free tier with no subscription or login required.

Are there other applications for this technology?
The first implementation of our breakthrough PureTone Motion technology in our sister app, Sleepwave, which has since become a top-rated smart alarm and sleep tracking app.
In the coming year, we’ll be adding more exciting features to Motionscape. Beyond this, the potential applications of our PureTone Motion technology are wide-ranging and versatile.
