Perfect app- lovely
Though retired and on a tight budget I adore the app that allows us to use it and benefit from it daily for free- while offering more for those able to pay. Such a simple app it is easy to use it daily as I have done for years now. Thank you!
Relief
Sometimes I get “hot flashes” and this cool air relaxes and cools me!

I love this app, use nearly daily
Broken
Only works half of the time. Sometimes it runs without a hitch, and other times it freezes, lags, or quits. It seems to get worse with every iOS update.
気分転換できます
呼吸を整えたいときや瞑想したい時にメトロノームがわりにつかっています。使い勝手が良いです。色々設定出来ますが私はボックス法しか使っていません。
Very elegant design
Very simple, beautiful and effective. Exactly what I was looking for in a (box breathing) app. I like the color variety and the ability to set the prompts to vibrate because I often hold my phone in my hand while breathing. No noise. No distractions. No counting in my head. Reminders and stats are a plus. But the real treasure is its simplicity. This app lives on my home screen and I use it many times a day.
I updated my review to three stars for a few reasons: there is only one option for sound and that one option has crackling in the audio no matter how high the volume is. It’s not a very pleasant sound at all and can’t be customized. Also, the stats feature is lacking in many areas. It’s basically a bare bones feature. I would like to see some future development on this but I won’t hold my breath.
Updated review again in 2026, this time to 5 stars; dev has made improvements.
Finally, an Apple Watch companion. Apple’s own breathe app can’t be set up to do box breathing.

Love it!
I love the choices of sounds and colors. The choices of how long are extremely helpful. I can decide what I need. My doctor recommended the 4-7-8 breathing for the morning and before bed to help me focus and relax. It definitely works!
Great app
Use it daily

호흡과 멈춤 소리가 직관적으로 딱 느껴지면 좋겠는데 애매합니다. 눈을 감고 하는 경우엔 더더욱 헷살려요.
Very basic app, not worth the subscription fee
I used to use another app, which had very defined breathing patterns. The only thing you could change was the timer for the pattern. This one allows you to modify the length of inhale, hold, and exhale, which is nice, and made me think that it might be worth keeping. The main reason I decided against it is that I like to breathe with my eyes closed, and the music they used to indicate inhale versus exhale doesn’t clearly indicate to me when to switch.

Excellent
Easy to use, easy to choose individual breathing pattern, and excellent results.
Simply and Lovely
Set listen breathe aaah
Helped my blood pressure….
…. And my sleep score, my stress level, my ability to check out or focus right before something important.
Simple and functional
Useful for helping my patients stay relaxed during medical procedures under local anesthesia

Sudden change no notice
I have always used this as a free app (or maybe the very cheap version with no ads), having not needed to unlock the themes. I don’t use this often, mostly at the dentist. But when I have used it I have loved it!
All of a sudden, with no notice, the free (or no ads) version no longer exists for me, although it seems to still exist on the App Store. The only option I have is to pay $29.99 annually or $12.99 per month.
I am not even objecting to their needing to monetize the app I have a huge problem with the lack of communication about it and suddenly finding I can’t use it, especially for an app that one mostly uses when agitated or anxious.

Don’t Let the Positive Reviews Mislead You
The positive reviews are all from before they put everything behind a paywall. Now you can’t do anything at all without paying. This app shouldn’t be labeled as “free”. It used to be great but welcome to modern day capitalism. Deleting and reporting for false advertising.
Simple, intuitive & flowing
I must say I love this app. When I really want to focus on my breathing,it can either sit in the background or I can literally just watch it as a mindfulness exercise
