## What is BreatheSimply?

Breathe Simply guides you instantly to intentional breathing. It consists of a simple screen with a circle that times your cycle through breathing in, pausing and breathing out. There is an option to pick a photo to use as the background picture.  There is the ability to view the history of Breathe Simply sessions.

When the screen first opens, use the preset values or set your preferred time in seconds for inhalation, holding and exhalation, and how many times you wish the cycle to repeat. Version 2.0 adds an optional second hold between exhalation and inhalation. Use the volume buttons on your device to set the sound level. Once set, click the Start button and the settings buttons disappear. Simply follow the marker around the circle, or set aside your device and listen to the voice prompts guiding your breathing.

### 5/5 — So Simple !

*2023-01-11*

I’ve used many different breathing apps recommend to me by others, but they were just too complicated ! This app is so easy and takes no time to input any information. You simply download the app, open it and it’s ready to use. Literally making breathing simply :)

### 5/5 — Great breath app.

*2022-08-31*

What I like is that it’s easy to use / strait forward.

**Developer response:** We have really strived to keep Breathe Simply easy to use.

### 5/5 — Breathe simply

### 5/5 — Love the simple design and no ads

*2022-05-15*

I really appreciate the simple design and the lack of ads or features I don’t need! Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants a straightforward app for calming and relaxation.

### 5/5 — Does Simple Better!

*2022-04-19*

This App is so simple but that is what makes it special! The idea of breathing and meditation to keep the mind and body in harmony needs to be assisted by something that keeps one’s mind calm and focused to achieve optimal results. This app does it by giving you something to focus on which calms the mind down and has a simple breathing system which allows you to focus on your breath. I feel if used daily this app will deliver both short and long term benefits. Thank you!

### 5/5 — In-spired!

*2022-04-14*

I first saw Breathe Simply in beta form and was inspired to join the effort to make it available. The developer’s “zero friction” approach to guided breathing, with the app’s single screen, no sign-up and absolutely minimal settings, make it one-of-kind. His commitment to offering the app for free and without ad support mean the user’s only cost is the time spent breathing under its guidance!

### 5/5 — Mindful breathing support

*2022-04-10*

Great app for getting in touch with the rhythm of the breath. It’s simple, effective and easy to use.

### 4/5 — This app is extremely easy to use.

*2022-04-08*

It’s refreshing to be able to download an App and just use it.

The benefits of mindful breathing are well known. The app facilitates mindful breathing in a soothing way.

### 5/5 — Love the simplicity

*2022-04-08*

Easy to use
No fuss no muss
Appealing to the senses
