There’s a new app for the iPhone specifically designed for the bedroom.
However, the Bedometer isn’t a virtual bedpost you can notch with conquests. Or an app to gauge the springiness of your mattress.
Although it is sort of the latter, in that you put your iPhone down on the bed when having sex, and the app measures the intensity of your activity – the amount of bouncing around, to put it crudely – via the phone’s accelerometer.
Bedometer also times the length of the session, and then works out how many calories you’ve burned. Presumably there’s an option to add some calories back on if you’ve been using chocolate spread in your carnal activities.
The Sun, who uncovered this app, reports that it was the brainchild of a woman who was desperate to get her lazy boyfriend to shape up and exercise.
"The results have been amazing. My boyfriend can’t get enough of it," she told the paper. "Our initial tests show that a vigorous workout for 15 minutes burns almost 200 calories each."
It’s all very scientific, we’re sure. If you want to try out the Bedometer, it’ll cost you 59p (although surely 69p would have been the most appropriate price to pitch it at).
