User reviews

Poor timer

This is a good app with the exception of the timer. If you want to set a timer you get options for 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 30 minutes. I need to set it for 20 minutes and there’s no way to do that.

Keeps stopping

I’ve used this app for years, recommended by a Mayo Clinic doctor, and it worked fine. Lately it goes for a minute or so, then stops, and I can’t figure out why.

Simple perfection

I love this app, it’s clean, clear, with no extra stuff to bog down my brain. It just does the job. My go to before meetings and bed. Added perk, kids love it, a win win for emotional regulation and transitioning!

Devs gave up?

This WAS great. Somewhere in February-ish of this year the app stopped having the ability structure breathing patterns (in,hold,out, hold) - the comments on the reviews seem to have been saying the same thing over and over again for months and no updates have fixed the problem. Would not recommend in its present form.
