BreathTap: Breathing & Urges

Two kinds of calm in one app: paced breathing when stress builds, and a guided urge interrupt when a craving hits. The urge interrupt takes about a minute: notice what you can see, hear and feel, read a reframe card, play a short memory puzzle, then say honestly whether you resisted or gave in. Start either one from the app, Siri or your Apple Watch, or from Control Center and the Action Button on iOS 18 or later. Breathing Box breathing is free for everyone; 4-7-8 and the Physiological Sigh come with Pro. An animated circle paces every inhale, hold and exhale, with gentle vibration and soft sounds (ocean waves, soft air or rain). Pick a color theme or a scenery background. No account is needed to start a session. Urge Interrupt Late-night scrolling, snacking, smoking: whatever habit you are working on, tap the fuse when the urge hits. With a free account, the reframe card is one you write in your own words, and each outcome is saved, with a few seconds to undo. A streak, a 4-week calendar, a daily check-in, an optional evening reflection, and the money and time you saved (from the cost and time per urge you set) show your pattern. Apple Health Turn on Apple Health in Settings and breathing sessions you finish on iPhone, plus Apple Watch sessions and urge interrupts saved to your free account, are added as Mindful Minutes. BreathTap never reads anything from Health. Free and Pro: one-time purchases, no subscription Free: 3 breathing sessions a day with Box breathing, every theme, three breath sounds, the urge interrupt any time, and tracking for one habit. BreathTap Pro: no daily cap, the 4-7-8 and Physiological Sigh patterns, session history and streaks, more sounds, more than one habit, and a CSV export of your urge history. BreathTap Pro + AI Coach: everything in Pro, plus an AI calm coach that suggests a pattern for how you feel, AI-written reframes and an in-the-moment pep talk, up to 30 messages a day. The app asks before anything is sent to an AI model. Privacy: BreathTap does not sell your data, show ads, or track you across other apps or websites. Details are in the in-app Privacy Policy.
