Works great. You just count reps not holding period. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2026-04-05* A few more techniques can be added like sufi breathework **Developer response:** 💗💗💗💗💗 ### 5/5 — Relaxing‼️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ *2026-01-23, version 52.1* Thank you for this app I love that you can create and save one of your own! ### 5/5 — No muss no fuss! *2026-01-19, version 52.1* Two thumbs up, three if I had them.

Pls add vol. sliders *2025-11-25* It’s an awesome breathing app! It includes many premade breathing programs and the ability to create your own that fit your individual in and out breaths that you can save for later use. I love how this developer has made the app free and has given us the ability to make voluntary contributions to the team. I really like this idea because it makes it about giving instead of taking. I hope the developer makes plenty of money from the generosity of very satisfied users. Suggestions: Would be nice to have individual volume sliders for the various sounds, but especially for the voices and bells. I like to close my eyes while using the Awesome Breathing App and I find the voices a little too loud and distracting. I would like to lower their volumes while keeping the music volume set higher. Also, I suggest adding some more voice options that sound a little dreamier to match the music. Thanks you! ### 5/5 — Einfach, ästhetisch und komplett flexibel *2025-05-25* Tolle App in der ich alles einstellen und ausstellen kann, wie ich will. Sehr gute Entwicklerarbeit. Meine Freunde mit Nicht-iPhone sind neidisch. **Developer response:** 💗💗💗💗💗 ### 5/5 — Brilliant app! *2025-05-25* All the features you need to practice resonate breathing **Developer response:** 💗💗💗💗💗 ### 5/5 — Life Changing *2025-05-19, version 52.1* I don’t think I’ve ever reviewed an app before, but this has had such an incredible positive impact on my life. I use it multiple times a day to stay centered and self-regulate. Absolutely recommend! ### 5/5 — Wonderful *2025-05-12* I have recently been introduced to breath work after reading a book on the subject.I found this app visually beautiful and easy to follow. Appreciate being able to customise sound and visuals **Developer response:** 💗💗💗💗💗 ### 5/5 — Excellent *2025-05-07, version 52.1* I am recovering from multifocal double pneumonia. Although I am no longer in critical stages of illness or recovery, I am in a functional stage of recovery. This app is helping me tremendously with setting my own breathing patterns and cycles. I can’t recommend it enough. Truly grateful. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2025-04-10, version 52.1* Very good app. Simple. Visual. Minimal and no distractions. I had a problem with high cortisol. I started breathing with this app once or twice a day and my cortisol has returned to normal levels. Superb. ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2025-02-06, version 47.1* There’s quite a few of these apps out there but this one is the best I’ve found. I like that you can adjust the timing of the breaths. Very intuitive to use ### 5/5 — Really good *2025-01-28, version 47.1* Simple,useful & free, thank you developers! ### 5/5 — Great App *2025-01-18, version 47.1* Simple elegant design and free. Thank you ### 5/5 — Brilliant for what I was precisely looking for. *2025-01-09* Don't mean to show off but I'm a bit comfortable with doing meditation. So I just needed an app that helped with long mindful deep breaths and this does the job just fine. **Developer response:** We are so glad to hear you are enjoying our simple, intuitive experience! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Too Many Bugs *2025-12-05, version 52.1* On my iPhone, there is significant “timer drift,” such that by the end of a ten minute session it is off by three seconds. On my iPad, the drift issue is better, but the “inhale/exhale” cues will just randomly not happen from time to time, which defeats the purpose obviously. I’m just looking for a simple, customizable breathing app that doesn’t nag me about too much extraneous stuff and actually works. Ain’t found it yet. ### 2/5 — Buggy, under developed *2022-10-07, version 46.1* Audio isn’t cross faded and there is a lag when it loops. Awkward set up. App closes when you lock the screen ### 2/5 — Static ruins an otherwise great timer *2021-10-07, version 42.5.0* After an initial great start, the playback developed static when the bell sounds. I reinstalled the app and that helped at first but it started up after a couple of uses. It’s a shame because otherwise I like everything about the timer but the static sound is very disruptive and unpleasant. If there is a fix, I would like to know what it is. ### 3/5 — Some problems *2024-08-30* Could be very good but sound doesn’t work without the screen being on…and continues to run indefinitely after the time has finished in some cases for whatever reason. Would not have known and would’ve continued with the breathing except I added an end of program bell that is not on by default. That term did go off but the app kept going otherwise. In line with it not working without the screen being on as one would expect it will also not work if one navigates to another app. Obviously being engaged with the phone and flipping to another app is not a great idea if you are doing breathing practices, but sometimes one has to clear something or otherwise engage for a moment and even though one could continue uninterrupted with the breathing exercise for continuity during the time it takes to do this it will of course not work. Found these things in the first couple of uses so maybe there is more. I would like to express the app could be really good for breathing exercises with at least fixing being able to shut off the screen, and avoiding any sort of continuation after the timer is finished. All that said I donated to the development effort. ### 3/5 — Audio cuts when you leave the app *2021-12-28* I love this app but would love it so much more if the audio could continue while I go onto another screen, the way music and podcast apps do - developers, any chance? Frustrates me every time! ### 4/5 — Great App *2025-10-19* This is a great app and I appreciate that there are no adds. I just wish that instead of stopping mid breath with the timer, it would stop at the end of the breath. **Developer response:** 💗💗💗💗💗 ### 4/5 — Use it daily. Works great in IOS. Is buggy on IpadOS. *2023-10-11, version 47.1* Love the app on the iphone. Hope they improve the ipad version. On my ipad I cannot save a custom breathing pattern. ### 4/5 — Life changing app *2023-01-24, version 46.1* Something we all do is breath but not deeply enough or exhale fully Love it ### 4/5 — Add flexibility *2022-12-10, version 46.1* 1. Add more sounds to the signaling. 2. add an additional setting to repeat circles one, two, three, or four. enabling five, six, seven, or eight minutes total. ### 4/5 — I wish it was on iWatch as well! *2022-09-19* Great simple app and I wish it would have a watch version as well! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2026-08-14* This app is perfect. It does what it’s supposed to, is accessible and not hidden behind a paywall. Easy to use, no bloat. Thank you to the app developers! ### 5/5 — Love! *2026-08-05* This is my favorite breathing app. I like that I can change and customize breaths. I have it synced to Apple Health. I love Sage’s voice which I find helpful and soothing. The new update is great! It is free but I donated because I really like the app and appreciate the developer(s). It has not cured my anxiety but does help calm me. Very happy and highly recommend! 😁 ### 5/5 — Best breathing app out there. *2026-07-30, version 52.1* Fantastic, customizable app. Amazing that it’s free. Highly recommend. Used it in conjunction with Leah Lagos’ book. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2026-07-28* Beautifully relaxing and considerate app. I believe this kind of breathing is the best for healing and calm. Have been looking for this app for many years! **Developer response:** ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ ### 5/5 — Awesome Free app *2026-07-10, version 52.1* Works great for helping count your breath ### 5/5 — Thank you *2026-07-01, version 52.1* It helped a lot thanks🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲 ### 5/5 — Does what it says on the tin. *2026-06-29* I wanted something visual/audible to not only pace myself after a spell of atrial fibrillation but to show to whoever is in the room that I’m busy. **Developer response:** ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ ### 5/5 — Like it. *2026-06-14* So simple yet so effective. **Developer response:** 💗💗💗💗💗 ### 5/5 — Breath work *2026-06-01, version 52.1* Brilliant need I say more! ### 5/5 — Awesome to adjust breathing to own comfort *2026-05-22* Two different tones would have been nice feature for inhale:exhale to know which one is without looking at screen **Developer response:** 💗💗💗💗💗 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
