## What is Anavara?

Daily meditation in 5–20 minutes — in German or English.
Sleep aids, crisis anchors, body scans, mantras. No streaks, no account.
With every session your personal snowflake year grows.

HOW IT WORKS
• Three required lessons to start — you learn to arrive, to sit, to breathe.
• After that, the app recommends a fitting session every day — based on your progress.
• Ten areas: Foundation, Awareness, Connection, Insight, Purpose, Anchor (crisis), Sleep, Movement, Season, Deep.
• Choose your voice (German or English) and a background sound — nature sounds, healing frequencies, soft piano or colored noise.

YOUR DAILY THREAD
Every day has its mantra. 365 of them, one after another — written from silence, not from self-optimization.
You earn it through your session. Only then does it appear.

YOUR FLAKES
Every completed session becomes a snowflake on your branch.
Over the year, your flakes condense into an image — at year's end, your personal Year-in-Review.

YOUR PULSE-CHECK
Weekly, monthly, yearly. Where do your flakes gather? How does your mood shift through the sessions? No judgment — just a mirror.

YOUR JOURNAL
Three short fields. Highlight, feeling, thought. All optional. No essay.
What you want to keep lands automatically in your Commonplace — your personal book of resonance.

HONEST AND QUIET
• No login, no account, no cloud — all data lives on your iPhone
• No trackers, no advertising IDs, no analytics
• Language via iPhone Settings → Anavara → Language (German or English)

WIDGET & HEALTH
Today's mantra as a widget on your Home and Lock Screen. And every completed session counts as mindful minutes in Apple Health.

SUBSCRIPTION
Anavara Premium unlocks the full library (120+ sessions across ten areas, four voices, all background sounds).
Seven sessions are free — enough to know if it fits.

A snowflake weighs less than nothing.
But a thousand of them break the thick branch.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.3 — 2026-07-19

The player is now where you need it.

New: the Lock Screen, Control Center and Dynamic Island show your running session — with play/pause, ±15 seconds and progress, without opening the app.
Its artwork carries the colour of the area you're practising in.

Also: the voices sound calmer. We remastered every session so no passage suddenly jumps in volume.

### 1.2 — 2026-07-13

The player is now always within reach.

New: a floating bar shows what's playing from anywhere in the app — one tap brings the player right back.
In Rituals, the list itself now shows which session is playing or paused, with live progress.

Also: small fixes to language display.

### 1.1 — 2026-06-28

Five new areas have arrived: Anchor (for the hard moments), Sleep, Movement, Season and Deep — 33 more sessions.

In the evening, Anavara now suggests a Sleep session automatically.

New: Apple Health — your sessions count as mindful minutes.
New: a mantra widget for your Home and Lock Screen.

Plus polish across the English translation and an audio data fix.

### 1.0 — 2026-06-06
