Just Be Bored

When you want to meditate but can’t—when your mind races or panic feels close—Be Bored helps you return to deep, steady breathing. Instead of fighting your screen, it turns it into a silent visual anchor: a warm candle flame to rest your eyes on, with gentle cues and no sounds. How to use - Set any duration. Open, tap Start. - Watch the flame. Inhale slowly, exhale fully. - Begin with short sessions when feeling overwhelmed. Why it helps - A simple visual anchor reduces wandering and spirals. - Reframes “checking your phone” into a breathing ritual. - Short, flexible sessions make it easy to begin anywhere. Features - Silent by design — no in-app sounds - Candle flame visual guide for deep breathing - Custom durations (no longer limited to 5/10/15) - One-tap start, minimal, calming UI - Optional: pairs with any background audio you play Note Be Bored supports healthy breathing habits but isn’t a medical device or treatment. If you’re concerned about anxiety or panic, consider consulting a professional. Breathe. Be bored. Be present.
