The mYoga App is available for health conscious people

Yoga is recognised as an accessible way to lead a physically active lifestyle. The World Health Organisation's (WHO) mYoga is an app for the general public to use regularly, providing Yoga learning and practise sessions of varying durations.

The app was developed through a review of scientific literature and extensive international expert consultation processes. The app is safe and secure, collecting no data from users at all, and can be used as a daily yoga companion for people aged 12–65 years. It is available in English and Hindi, with other UN languages following in the coming months.

The app comprises a collection of videos and audio practise sessions that users can do in the comfort of their own homes as and when they wish.

WHO launched its global Traditional Medicine Strategy 2014–2023 to strengthen the quality, safety, and effectiveness of Traditional and Complementary Medicine. With support from the Ministry of Ayurveda, Yoga & Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha, and Homoeopathy (Ministry of AYUSH), Government of India, WHO has developed the mYoga app to support the implementation of the strategy and encourage people to practise quality yoga at the touch of their smartphone screen.

The app has been assessed to be very safe in terms of cybersecurity because it does not require any information about the user. It does not even require you to set up an account.
