What's New in BreathZen
4.0
October 18, 2026
BreathZen 4.0: the breathing screen is now the app icon, alive. • A new breathing screen: four colored ripples, slowly drifting mist, and a core of light that opens with every inhale and settles with every exhale. • A new app icon, with dedicated dark and tinted versions. • iPhone Duo support: unfolded, the ripples and the text sit on either side of the fold; folded, the layout fits the outer display. • Lock Screen artwork now shows the same ripples and mist. • Long pattern names and button labels now appear in full in every language. • On Mac, Choose a Pattern and Practice Journal open at full height, and the app stays dark all day.
