Sources and information status
Content reviewed 19 September 2026
Each source supports only the statements within its stated scope. Timer presets are product choices, not treatment dosage derived from these sources. Research or translation is not clinical approval.
Squeezing and relaxing
IQWiG: How pelvic floor training works — anatomy, breathing, awareness, contraction, relaxation and individual instruction; updated 12 November 2025. It does not validate a fixed LiftLetGo timer sequence.
Female urinary incontinence
AWMF: S2k guideline on female urinary incontinence — distinguishes bladder and pelvic floor training by symptom pattern. A short app starter is not a complete treatment programme; the register status needs checking before calling the guideline current.
Everyday movement, pregnancy and childbirth
BIÖG: pelvic floor use in everyday life — exhaling with effort and everyday movement. BIÖG: pregnancy and childbirth — healing, individual circumstances and support from a midwife or physiotherapist. Neither source supports an automatic app dosage or universal week-based clearance.
Training and professional help
German Continence Society: tips and exercises and its specialist search — correctly learned technique, regular practice and further advice if nothing changes. The society does not recommend a LiftLetGo routine.
Additional movement ideas
AOK: five exercises for home — editorial inspiration for the small bridge, not a clinical guideline. Austria’s public health portal: pelvic floor training — German-language ideas for a pelvic floor lift and all-fours movement, not evidence for a stand-alone incontinence treatment.
Pregnancy research
IQWiG project N25-04 — final report published 15 April 2026. Its findings apply to the studied population and do not validate LiftLetGo or an automatic special dosage.
Purpose of the app
BfArM: Medical Apps guidance — an app’s stated purpose matters to its legal status. Linking this guidance does not legally classify LiftLetGo.
Additional English-language sources
Continence Health Australia: exercises for women — close-and-lift technique, release and The Knack; no individually validated app dosage. NHS: gentle breathing — calm, unforced breathing; no evidence that 4/6 is superior to 4/4 or that the app treats pelvic floor symptoms.
