Solid, needs more quality of life stuff

Decent one time price for the premium. Decent selection between breathing exercises. My gripes are not being able to edit the length and duration of individual aspects of ALL breathing exercise. For example you can only change how many cycles you do for the preset exercises, not the length of the inhales or exhales.
Now, they technically have the framework to fix this via custom exercises, but it hasn’t been implemented very well. You only get one template type for custom exercises which is very rigid and quite limiting. Really only one type of custom breathing exercise you can create.
Just let me edit each aspect of each exercise to better tailor my experience doing them. Or let me have more freedom when it comes to making custom exercises, by allowing me to get minute with what I want in my exercise, like separating inhales, exhales, and holds into individual addons.

Also please just let me edit the cycle length on the breathing page at least, it’s annoying going back and forth into a separate menu just to change the duration of my exercise. Just put it right underneath the start breathing button.

Great app

Very useful!

Fantastic app

iBreathe is both extremely useful and exceptionally well designed. It feels Apple-like and is very reliable. Total device compatibility, including Apple Watch and Mac compatibility is a big selling point for me too, nice work dev! Not paid or incentivised for this review, just a happy user.

Watch haptic feedback behavior change?

I love this app, hence the 5 star rating. However, it seems as if the haptic behavior on the Watch has changed for the worse (IMO). There used to be a one single prominent tap in between each breath, but it seems like now, it’s a series of very light taps during each breath. With my haptic setting at Prominent in the Watch app, I can still barely feel it beneath the sound of my breath. Using the voice is way too intrusive (again, IMO), so that’s not an option for me.

Am I imagining this?

Solid app for helping you do breath work

Could use an update. The are three preset breathing methods and one custom setting. The custom could be made better by a longer duration, current one is about 16 minutes. Also, you can only do whole seconds. No half second methods such as the “perfect breath” of 5.5 inhale and 5.5 exhale as defined by James Nestor.

Also, a second custom setting would be awesome.

Solid app though, I use it multiple times per day and did the paid version.

Edit* the app has been updated several times since my review and it’s perfect now. The dev is awesome.
