Thank YOU !

It’s BACK :) !! As as biofeedback therapist, Belly Biofeedback is the ONLY app that give quantifiable information about your breathing rate (goal: 4-6/bpm). Thank you for the upgrade to iOS 8 !!!! It IS the Best…...

Terrible

It keeps saying irregular breathing no matter how many times I "adjust "the phone. Then it shuts off. I have to restart it again and again it just is like a big PITA..

Won’t open on iPhone 14

Will download but won’t stay open.

Amazing!

Doesn’t matter that this app is never updated. It serves its purpose perfectly and is amazing for beginners like me who is just starting with belly bio breathing. I can’t believe how it is able to track my breathing and play music to encourage me if I’m on track. Super innovative app and totally worth the try. Did I mention it’s free?!?!

FAQ

What is BellyBio Interactive Breathing?

BellyBio is an app that uses your iPhone's sensors to measure deep abdominal breathing. It synchronizes beautiful music and light patterns with your breath, providing a rewarding and engaging biofeedback experience. The app aims to make deep breathing more pleasant and to offer an objective measure of your stress levels based on your breathing patterns.

How does BellyBio work?

You place your iPhone on your stomach, face up, so it tilts with your belly's movement during deep abdominal breaths. The app measures the angle change to detect your breathing. This data is then used to generate synchronized music and light, and to display real-time breathing and stress curves.

What are the key features of BellyBio?

Key features include interactive musical themes that play in sync with your breathing, audio feedback on stress levels, customizable breathing colors, real-time graphs of breathing and stress, and logs of your sessions. It also features a 3D animation showing global user activity.

Who is BellyBio for?

This app is specifically for individuals who can naturally breathe deeply and slowly from their belly. It is not recommended for those who struggle with abdominal breathing, as it requires this fundamental skill to function effectively and avoid frustration.

Is BellyBio free to download and use?

The app is free to download, but it offers in-app purchases. The description mentions a large file size due to a multiformat music base, suggesting that additional content or features may be available for purchase.
