Love this app: just one wish

I love this app and have been looking for something exactly like it for some time. My only wish is for more options. I find even the longest breathing rate a little fast for me. When I want to relax and calm down, I really try to lengthen my breaths and the 6:6 and 5:7 aren’t very long. Would also be great to get some other pranayama options like breath holds, etc. All that said, I still love the app. Very simple and elegant. Thank you!!!

Perfect and simple

Well done app. So many times it has helped me. Clean design, simple, adjustable, well done. Helps me with my breathing when I’m stressed which is so important for someone battling anxiety. I can't believe more people have not found and used this app!

Great, but.......

I would likeMore options for breathing timers I found a 5 to 7 ratio to be mildly challenging I would like something that goes a little further beyond that hope to see that included in future updates otherwise I will continue to use this app

Great app; want more ratio options

I begin my day with this app, and recommend it to my students. Love it! The only improvement I’m hoping for is the ability to personally tailor the breath ratios. I start at a breath rate of 6:6. If I want to do a ratio longer than that, I can’t use this app. Fingers crossed this is an improvement in the works!

Thank you

Thank you for this thoughtful gift to us all. Who among us is without stress? I find this wildly helpful. Had surgery last week, and the anesthesiologist taught me this method to calm me down. Now I’ve found your app. Don’t think I’ll ever not be doing this. In other words... count me in for life!

Keeps getting stuck

Great app, I was using it daily to help control anxiety I often wake up with. Few times now, I open the app and can’t get it to play- the play symbol doesn’t appear, just the backgrounds. My software is up to date. I tried restarting my phone but it’s still the same... very frustrating as I’ve come to rely on it now, and like this morning, woke up earlier to do it but I’m unable to (which adds to my anxiety). Now instead of waking up thinking- I’ll do some breathing, I think: will it work. Fix it please as I’d like to continue.

Fine, but

The App is fine in general. Easy to set up and use. First couple of times...when you remember about it =) There is no reminder functionality in the App. For me it means that I will forget about that due to a busy lifestyle. Some alternative Apps have that functionality though.
It would be nice to see a progress of your breathing sessions or some stats as well. A kind of historical performance.
Design is quite simple which is good, but I don't really like info page. I mean it looks quite outdated and there is soooo much text, which you don't want to read, but you have to to understand how it works. Really like the idea of the circle. Totally a visual win for a breathing App.

Amazing

Sharing the experience of breath with so many people at the launch was mind blowing - I was t prepared for how powerful it could also be in my own home... have used it every day since the launch - thank you 🙌🏿

Powerful Tool

I have been using the app at night to calm my mind down from all of the thoughts and plans I have throughout the day. Even being fully awake, it only takes 2 minutes of the breathing exercises to make me really sleepy. Great tool for those who have a hard time falling asleep or suffer from insomnia! Thank you, Eddie!
