Nice

Pretty app and nice functions but the check in button doesn’t work

Response from developer

Hii nat, thank you :) it should work if you allow push notifications. Or if your phone is on do not disturb, notifs won’t work. there’s a button in your phone settings you need to tap allow it. Email me datrie@fulfilledsoul.com & I can help you :)

Incredible app for my doomscrolling

You have SAVED MY LIFE

A Gentle Pause

I like the gentle pause that encourages you to take a breath. This helps you reconnect with what you want to focus your time and energy on. The design is calming, thoughtful and supportive of mindfulness. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a healthier balance with screen time!

Amazing app!

I’ve been trying to break my scrolling habit, and so far this app has helped so much. I love how instead of just shutting off an app, it helps me reconnect with my body and breath. Definitely recommending it to friends and family :)

Exceptional!

This app has aloud me to come back to myself over and over again, it catches the want to just scroll mindlessly, and unlike other apps this helps me refocus on my breathing, grounding and presence. Worth every penny!
