### 5/5 — perfect

*2025-11-18*

without ads simple and functional

### 4/5 — Good one!

*2022-07-07*

UI is so simple which is really nice.
However I’m so happy if I can set time in 0.1s like inhale 5.5s. Inhale and exhale in 5.5 is perfect for coherence. I read a book.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2022-06-27*

I love this app, very straightforward to use.  Would be even better if there were also sound cues for breathing in and out.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2022-01-07*

This app is the most simple, functional, and easy on the eyes out of all the ones I downloaded. It does exactly what it needs to do and is so helpful.

### 2/5 — Missed opportunity

*2021-11-24, version 1.1*

Beautifully simple but absence of a voice or audible  prompt for various parts of breathing cycle means its all visual .. 
if trying to relax,  relieve stress or use as a sleep aid etc then an audible prompt is essential ...

### 5/5 — Idéal

*2021-09-14*

Après tant d'appli de respiration payantes regorgeant de gadgets inutiles, voilà tout ce que l'on attend gratuite d'une appli de ce genre : gratuite, complète et sobre. 
Merci BEAUCOUP.

### 4/5 — It’s aight

*2021-09-02*

Pretty cool should download

### 3/5 — Sound please

*2021-08-25*

Would be perfect if I could guide my breathing with sound besides the circle

### 4/5 — Great app Suggestion to make it even better

*2021-05-09*

Love the app, easy and clear set up options. Amazing and unique for a free app feature to have holds as well as inhaling and exhaling time. 
One suggestion, I need to close my eyes when I am doing the breathing. Can you add a voice to trigger “inhale” “hold” “exhale” or a chime or a singling bowl.. something so I don’t need to look at the screen. Thank you very much

### 4/5 — 惜しい！

*2021-02-07*

音が出ない(//∇//)
画面はシンプルで綺麗で最高！
でも音が無い。吸う時と止める時と吐く時が音で区別出来てわかるのを探していただけに残念。
シンプルで良いのにな。残念。
