## What is Dharma?

Your practice, one glance away. Dharma Wellness now puts your streak, today's minutes, and a one-tap start on your Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Control Center — and your meditation timer on the Dynamic Island, Apple Watch, and Lock Screen with controls built in.

A complete mindfulness companion: precision meditation timer, guided breathing, ambient sleep sounds, brainwave entrainment, a personal journal, and a full Apple Watch app. Built for simplicity, backed by tradition. One purchase, yours forever.

WHY DHARMA WELLNESS?

Unlike apps that charge $70/year and lock features behind paywalls, Dharma gives you everything for a single $6.99 purchase. No account required. No ads. No tracking.

NEW IN 4.1: WIDGETS & LIVE ACTIVITY

• Home Screen widgets in three sizes — pick which stat leads (day streak, minutes today, this week).
• Lock Screen widgets — your streak and today's minutes at a glance, plus a progress ring.
• A Control Center control to start your pinned routine in one tap.
• A meditation Live Activity on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island with Pause, Resume, and End controls — manage your session without opening the app.
• Apple Watch Smart Stack — your active timer surfaces right on your wrist.
All styled with iOS 26's Liquid Glass, and showing your full meditation history (including Apple Health) so the numbers match what you see in the app.

ROUTINES

Save your favorite session as a Routine — duration, background sound, frequency tone, binaural preset, metronome, and end sound — then recall it in one tap from the home screen or Control Center.

APPLE WATCH

A full companion app: a precision meditation timer that survives wrist-lowered, screen-locked, and backgrounded states. Time-sensitive completion notifications + in-app haptics. Plus haptic-guided breathing and a dedicated Sleep mode.

CO-REGULATE

Meditate with someone nearby — no internet required. Two phones discover each other automatically and sync a shared timer using peer-to-peer connectivity. Partner-aware, with three relationship modes (Spouse / Friend / Family) and HealthKit metadata.

MEDITATION

Set your timer from 1 to 120 minutes with optional interval bells. Choose synthesized solfeggio frequency tones (174–963 Hz), ambient sounds, or silence. Follow one of 11 guided techniques — Vortex Breath, Yoga Nidra, Trataka, Box Breathing, 4-7-8, and more.

BRAINWAVE ENTRAINMENT

Five binaural beat presets — Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta, Gamma — for brainwave synchronization via stereo headphones. Headphone detection reminds you when one earbud is missing.

BREATHING EXERCISES

7 breathing patterns with visual guides and haptic feedback: Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril), Fibonacci Vortex Breath, Wim Hof, Box Breathing, 4-7-8, Coherent, and 5-5 / 6-6.

SLEEP MODE

Drift off with ambient sleep sounds — Binaural Beats, Brown Noise, Fire, Flowing Water, Forest Camp, Water Bubbles, White Noise. Set a fade-out timer.

JOURNAL & INSIGHTS

Log your mood and notes after each session — text or voice, mid-session or after. Track streaks, view statistics, and watch your practice grow. 352 daily mindfulness quotes for inspiration.

APPLE HEALTH

Every meditation session logs Mindful Minutes. Breathing exercises record as workouts. Your practice counts toward your Health rings — and now feeds your widgets too.

PRIVACY FIRST

No account. No email. No tracking. No ads. Your data stays on your device and syncs privately via iCloud.

$6.99 one-time purchase. No subscriptions. No in-app purchases. No upsells. Just you and your practice.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 4.4 — 2026-08-19

• Start, pause, and end a session with your voice — 14 Siri shortcuts on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch, including "start my morning routine," your streak, and a spoken summary. Siri never pulls you out of a practice to run them.
• Co-Regulate, redesigned — a calmer, presence-led screen for practising with a partner, friend, or family, with a gentler way to choose your sound and begin together.
• Your journal now remembers how a session was practised — the sound, frequency, binaural, metronome, and end sound behind each sitting.
• Apple Watch sessions arrive knowing what they were: sleep is saved as sleep, breathing as breathing. Each breathing session now writes a single Health record instead of two.
• Ending a session early now credits the minutes you actually sat, not the ones you planned.
• Accessibility: the practice calendar shows every day at large text sizes, VoiceOver can pause and resume a session, and the wind-down and completion screens are fully reachable.
• Your "Very Good" sessions now appear on the mood chart instead of being clipped off the top.

### 4.3 — 2026-07-14

A quieter, more beautiful Dharma. The timer home is stripped to the essentials — your hero number, a daily quote, and a one-tap start capsule — on a clean white canvas (warm charcoal in dark mode) with frosted-glass controls throughout. Save your setup as a preset on any timer and start it with a single tap; long-press to switch. Co-Regulate is redesigned with a soft breath-pulse when your partner joins, and now appears in History and Stats with an honest mindful-minutes breakdown. End a session early and keep your elapsed minutes. Simplified navigation: Timer, Co-Regulate, Library.

• Home & Lock Screen widgets, redesigned for iOS 26 — choose the stat you want to see, glance at your streak from the Lock Screen, and start your pinned routine from Control Center

• Widgets now reflect your full meditation history, including sessions from Apple Health — matching your in-app stats
