## What is Breathe?

Breathe is a guided breathing app with breathing exercises for calm, focus, and stress relief — a quiet, reliable place to slow your breath and reset, any time of day. Available on iPhone, iPad and Mac (designed for iPad).

Start a session in seconds and follow gentle bell cues, soft vibration, or both. With the bell on, a session keeps running in the background — screen locked, phone face down, or another app open — so you can close your eyes and simply breathe, hands-free, without watching the display.

No ads. No account, ever. Your breathing history is saved on your device and syncs privately through your own iCloud — and with Premium, sessions work fully offline: on a plane, on a trail, or with no signal at all.

Breathe anywhere, even in silence. Don't want to play sound in public and haven't got headphones in? Switch to haptics and let gentle vibration guide your inhale, hold, and exhale — ideal for commuting, an open-plan office, a waiting room, or any moment where audio cues aren't welcome.

Whether you want to slow down after a stressful moment, build a daily breathing habit, support meditation, or reset your focus during a busy day, Breathe gives you a calm space you can return to anytime.

What you can do:
• Start guided breathing sessions with a calm breath orb and ambient visuals
• Choose from 10 presets, including box breathing and long-exhale patterns for calm and focus
• Build your own custom pattern — set your inhale, hold, exhale, and hold
• Pick your guidance: gentle bell cues, silent haptics, or both
• Keep the bell guiding you in the background, screen locked, hands-free
• Set an optional session timer to end practice automatically
• Rate how each session felt and jot quick reflections — what helped, what made it hard
• Review your history in a built-in calendar
• Build streaks and see simple insights: total sessions, time breathed, average session, and active days
• Choose a light, dark, or system theme

Designed for iPhone, iPad, and Mac, with hardware keyboard shortcuts on iPad and Mac (Space to start or pause, Esc to stop).

Whether you practice for one minute or settle in for longer, Breathe is a simple breathing companion you can return to anytime.
