Squeezy Men

app is good but the scheduler does not work correctly

Great idea but completely let down by the reminders which just don't work: if you miss a session, the reminders stop completely; this makes it next to useless. Otherwise it's all good.

Request for an indicator for associated bowel movement in the bladder diary

In early December I wrote a note to support team on the Squeezy app, not knowing at that time there was a men’s app. I suggested an indicator for an “associated bowel movement indicator”. A review on that app stated the development team were reticent to add items not based on medical evidence. Here is the evidence to back my request here: Top 5 research papers on the interaction between bowel movement and bladder activity occurring in the same timeframe as the bladder activity. Why this matters : Bladder diaries often show variable urgency, frequency, and leakage that users can’t explain. A common missing context is **bowel activity and rectal loading** (e.g., constipation, rectal distension, bowel movement timing), which can acutely modulate bladder reflexes and sensations. Without bowel context, apps may misattribute patterns to fluids, caffeine, anxiety, or “random variability.” What the science shows in plain terms is: The bladder and bowel share: - Anatomic proximity - (rectum can mechanically affect bladder/urethra when distended) - Shared neural pathways (cross-sensitization and reflex cross-talk via pelvic afferents and spinal circuits) - Shared inflammatory/sensory signalling (bowel inflammation can increase bladder excitability) Result: bowel state and bowel events can shift bladder capacity, urgency thresholds, detrusor activity, and perceived bladder sensation on the same day—and sometimes within a short timeframe. Key evidence (5 anchor papers) - Burgers et al., Journal of Urology (2010), doi:10.1016/j.juro.2010.03.120 Acute rectal distension in children measurably alters lower urinary tract function on urodynamics → direct evidence of time-linked bowel→bladder effects. - Wyndaele et al., Journal of Urology (2013), doi:10.1016/j.juro.2013.03.045 Colorectal distension modulates bladder inhibition (animal model) → physiologic basis for bowel fullness influencing urgency/frequency. - Minagawa et al., Journal of Urology (2013) Colorectal distension changes bladder afferent nerve activity → explains altered bladder sensation/urgency around bowel changes. - Liang et al., Journal of Neuroinflammation (2012) Colonic inflammation drives changes in bladder activity via sensory pathway signaling → supports tracking bowel flares alongside urinary flares. - Scientific Reports (2022) **Functional constipation** induces bladder overactivity with relevant molecular pathway changes → supports bowel-state markers to interpret urinary frequency/urgency trends. I trust this is sufficient evidence for adding a “bowel movement associated” indicator to the bladder diary to capture association between bowel movements and urinary events.

Confusing messaging.

The app description says it’s suitable for all men wishing to do pelvic floor exercises but the information in the app says it’s not recommended as a routine exercise for men not currently experiencing symptoms. Perhaps that should also be in the app description as well I as downloaded it with a view to prevent any future issues.

Latest pointless update mucked up the interface. Update: I reinstalled the app and it's all okay now, it must have been a glitch. Thank you

very helpful app

No watch support

I’m sure I read somewhere that it had watch support so paid and downloaded. Unfortunately it does not so unless you want to get your phone out on the train and do your exercises I’d look elsewhere.

You need to sort out the mute option. If I am playing music while using the app, the music cuts out when beep would have sounded, very annoying. Secondly, if I start a squeezy session 19 minutes after the reminder, I don't need a reminder to squeeze when I am actually squeezing. I expect more from an app that I have to pay for.

Post prostrate surgery

Used this app on recommendation of McMillan nurse pre surgery and continued after. I genuinely feel it sped up my recovery. Highly recommend

Essential App

If you want to do these exercises properly you need the App. I did them for 3 months before finding the Squeezy App. With little or no effect. Using the app I quickly realised how to do the excercises correctly and reaped the benefits.
