### 5/5 — 호흡 운동으로 아주 좋은 앱

*2026-06-16*

업데이트 되었네요!! 이제 learn 탭에서 한국어로도 좋은 기사를 볼 수 있어요.

한국어 번역이 미숙한 부분이 있지만 쓰기에는 지장이 없습니다. 다만 메인인 호흡 운동만 지장이 없고 학습 탭은 아예 영어로 되어있어서 학습 탭이 중요하신 분들은 다른 방법 찾아보셔야 할 것 같아요. 보통 호흡 운동 앱은 명상이나 음악을 끼워서 파는데 이건 호흡 운동만 집중할 수 있어서 좋아요. 그리고 시각적 효과가 아주 좋습니다.

**Developer response:** Lungy를 다운로드해 주시고 리뷰를 남겨 주셔서 감사합니다! 한국어 번역이 다소 미숙하다는 점을 알려주셔서 매우 유용했습니다. 앞으로 번역을 개선하고 한국어 학습 모듈도 추가하는 방안을 고려해보겠습니다. Lungy의 호흡 운동과 호흡과 터치에 반응하는 인터랙티브 시각 효과를 즐기고 계신다니 기쁩니다! :)

### 5/5 — 超级的喜欢

*2026-05-22*

超级的喜欢，视觉化挺适合adhd的

**Developer response:** 嗨，非常感谢你的评价！Lungy 的所有场景都保持不变，不过我们对布局做了一点小调整，希望让 Lungy 更容易上手和导航。如果有任何你找不到的内容，欢迎随时联系：hello@lungy.app

### 5/5 — 어플은 참 좋습니다!

*2026-05-12*

앱 내에 자잘한 버그가 많습니다
이것만 좀 고쳐주세요…!
어플은 구매해서 잘 사용하고 있어요 😆

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요! 리뷰 정말 감사합니다. Lungy를 즐기고 계셔서 정말 기뻐요.

버그에 대한 자세한 내용을 보내주실 수 있다면 보상을 드릴게요 :) 아래 메일로 문의해 주세요: hello@lungy.app

### 5/5 — 호흡이

*2026-05-03*

마음이 편해져요~

### 4/5 — “Squishy” is bad

*2026-04-05*

“Squishy” is bad.  During the exhale phase, there’s not a clear indication of the pace you’re going for.  The white horizontal bar purports to go from the bottom of a square to the top, but the shape of the square changes during exhalation, and the bar suddenly jumps to the top of the square, immediately going to the “hold” phase.

**Developer response:** Dear WalterGR, 

Thanks for the feedback. We'll look into this - on squishy blobs the indicator moves on when you have completed the breath volume (so jumps to Hold), but I realise this is not as clear as it could be, and it doesn't give the best guide for timing. 

Look out for a fix on future update :)

### 5/5 — Unique

*2026-04-02*

I love the visual feedback, the simplicity, and the overall soothing vibe of the app. The visual feedback is especially helpful for people w ADHD to help them stay focused. I also like the one time purchase option. 

Things that could be improved: you can’t start an exercise from the favorites list. When creating a custom exercise, selecting the different sounds should cause it to play those sounds so you know what you’re choosing. There should be a way to provide feedback to the developer within the app.

Also, I find the organization of the app confusing. There’s so much overlap between the first two sections.

**Developer response:** Hey Julie, 

Thanks so much for your review - really glad you find Lungy helpful. 

The favourites list should be fixed now and we'll look into the audio playing on the custom screen and trying to make the navigation more clear. If there's anything else you'd like to see, please get in touch: hello@lungy.app :)

### 5/5 — Me encanta!

*2026-02-16*

La mejor aplicación de este estilo que he probado. Vale la pena pagar! ♥️

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-02-02, version 3.0.4*

Best breathing app out there, it’s a joy to use.

### 5/5 — Best breathing app

*2026-01-19*

Clearly a lot of care has gone into making this a beautiful and fun breathing app. Has all the exercises you could want: box, 478, alternate nostril etc etc. all with lovely animations and music. Worth the cost.

### 5/5 — Great for mindful breathing

*2026-01-11, version 3.0.0*

This app has some wonderful features to help switch off and focus on mindful breathing - the graphics are wonderful!
