Kegelia vs Squeezy.
These two aren't really rivals, they're built for different situations. Squeezy is a clinical, physiotherapist-designed app; Kegelia is a calm, discreet app for a daily habit on your own. We make Kegelia, and we'll be straight about which of you should use which.

The short version.
Squeezy is a clinical tool: its listing describes an app designed with chartered physiotherapists, registered as a medical device, and built to follow a pelvic floor programme a clinician sets for you, with reminders and diaries. If you're under a physiotherapist's care and want to follow their exact plan, it's purpose-built for that, and Kegelia doesn't try to be. Kegelia is the consumer app for the other situation: practicing on your own, wanting a calm, discreet daily habit that paces the technique. Different jobs, not better and worse.
What Squeezy is built for.
Squeezy's whole design is clinical, and that's a real strength for the right person. Its listing describes an app developed with NHS physiotherapists, registered as a medical device, made to run the exercise programme your own physiotherapist prescribes, with reminders and progress and symptom diaries you can share back with them. If you've seen a pelvic health physio and want an app that follows their plan to the letter and keeps records for your appointments, that's exactly the gap Squeezy fills. Kegelia is honestly not that tool, and we'd send you to Squeezy for it.
Where Kegelia is different.
Kegelia is a consumer app, not a clinical one, and it leans into a different set of strengths for the person practicing independently.
A jellyfish sets the rhythm and a gentle haptic marks the lift, so you train the movement, and the release, correctly, without a clinician's programme to follow.
In discreet mode the screen shows only the jellyfish, no labels or counters, so a session looks like meditation. It's built to feel gentle, not clinical.
You can begin on your own, today, with a free minute. No physiotherapist referral, no medical-device setup, just the exercise, paced.
The honest line.
We won't blur this one. Kegelia is not a medical device and isn't a substitute for a pelvic floor physiotherapist or for an app like Squeezy that's designed to follow a clinical programme. If you have a diagnosed condition, pelvic pain, prolapse, or a physio-prescribed plan, that clinical route is the right one, and Squeezy is made for it. Kegelia is for the very common situation of wanting to strengthen your pelvic floor, on your own, and mostly needing help doing it consistently and correctly.
Which should you choose?
Choose Squeezy if you're working with a physiotherapist and want to follow their prescribed programme, keep diaries, and have a registered medical-device app. Choose Kegelia if you're practicing independently and want a calm, discreet daily habit that paces the lift and the release for you. They can even be sequential: a physio and Squeezy while you're in treatment, then a simple daily habit afterwards.

The ones that come up.
What's the difference between Kegelia and Squeezy?
They're built for different situations. Squeezy positions itself as a clinical app, designed with chartered physiotherapists and registered as a medical device, made to follow a pelvic floor programme your physiotherapist sets, with reminders and diaries. Kegelia is a calm, discreet consumer app that paces the exercise with a jellyfish for people building a daily habit on their own. Neither replaces the other; the right one depends on whether you're following a clinician's plan or practicing independently.
Is Squeezy a good app?
Yes, especially if you're under the care of a pelvic health physiotherapist. Its listing describes an app designed with NHS physiotherapists and registered as a medical device, built to follow a prescribed programme with reminders and progress and symptom diaries. If you want to follow your physio's exact plan, that's exactly what it's for.
Is Kegelia a medical device like Squeezy?
No, and we're clear about that. Kegelia is not a medical device and isn't designed to follow a clinician-prescribed programme. It paces the exercise and marks the rhythm with a haptic to help you practice consistently and discreetly on your own. If you need a clinical, prescribed tool, Squeezy is built for that and Kegelia isn't.
Which should I choose, Kegelia or Squeezy?
If you're working with a pelvic floor physiotherapist and want to follow their prescribed programme with diaries, Squeezy is purpose-built for that. If you're practicing on your own and want a calm, discreet daily habit that paces technique, Kegelia fits that. Some people even start with a physio and Squeezy, then keep a simple daily habit with something like Kegelia.
