## What is Meiso?

Meiso is a completely free meditation app designed for beginners who want to build a lasting habit—without complicated settings.
Just follow the on-screen guide, and your breathing naturally falls into rhythm. Start a quiet session in as little as 5 minutes.

Based on feedback like "I gave up, it was too complicated" and "I just want to focus quietly on my breath," we kept only what truly matters. No confusing settings—open the app, and anyone can start meditating right away.

Open Meiso whenever your mind feels unsettled: when you're feeling down, anxious, before sleep, or before work or study. Just breathe along with the guide, and calm follows naturally.

【Who is this for?】
・Tried other meditation apps, but none of them stuck
・Find apps with too many features hard to use
・Want to focus on your breath with nature sounds, not music
・Want just 5 minutes to reset yourself
・Want a calming routine before bed or in the morning

【Why beginners stick with Meiso】

■ Simple, intuitive design
Choose a level (breath length), bell sound, nature sound, and duration, then press play. No confusion, even for first-timers.

■ Breathing guide for total beginners
The screen shows "Inhale → Hold → Exhale"—just breathe along. You'll naturally fall into rhythm.

■ Just 5 minutes, perfect for busy people
Start in as little as 5 minutes, with reminders for any time of day.

■ Focus Mode blocks distractions
Notifications and calls are blocked while you meditate, so you can stay fully immersed.

【What users say】
・"Simple and easy to use. Out of everything I tried, this felt the most right."
・"The breathing tempo is clear, and the bell sounds help me focus."
・"It keeps getting better with every update—now it's my ideal meditation app."

【Main features】

■ Mindfulness in just 5 minutes a day
Practice "Kumbhaka" (breath retention), a traditional yogic technique, guided step by step on screen. Deliberately holding your breath helps settle an irregular rhythm, and is said to support autonomic nervous balance and focus.

■ Customizable for beginners through advanced users
Choose level, bell type, ambient sound, and duration. Includes the widely talked-about 4-7-8 breathing method (Intermediate α), or set your own rhythm with "Custom Level"—freely adjust inhale, hold, and exhale from 4 to 32 seconds each.

■ Immersive nature sounds and bells
No background music—just bells and nature sounds, for meditation that feels like being outdoors.

■ Call blocking and screen-lock prevention
Stay uninterrupted and fully present throughout your session.

■ Health app integration (iOS) and habit support
Meditation time is logged automatically in Health. Reminders help you build a daily habit.

【FAQ】

■ Can beginners use this app?
Yes. The visual breathing guide makes it easy to start with no prior experience.

■ Is it free?
All features are free. In-app purchases (ad removal, optional tips) are entirely optional.

■ How long can sessions be?
From 5 minutes up to 999 minutes (about 17 hours).

■ Which level should I choose?
Start with "Introductory," then increase difficulty as you get comfortable.

■ Can I do the popular 4-7-8 method, or set my own rhythm?
Yes to both. 4-7-8 is "Intermediate α." For any rhythm, use "Custom Level" (inhale/hold/exhale, 4–32 sec each).

■ Does it sync with Apple Health?
Yes, automatically.

【A message from the developer】

We live in a stressful world, where it's increasingly common to witness events that affect not just our minds, but our lives.

No amount of money or status outweighs peace of mind—finding it doesn't cost a single cent. All it takes is relaxing and settling your breath.

Since we use our phones anyway, I wanted to create something that calms the mind, rather than wears it down through endless news and social media. That's the intention behind this app.

If even one person finds their way back to peace of mind through Meiso, there's no greater joy for me as a developer.

Simple, easy, the bells sounds are gentle and don’t give me a heart attack each time they sound. The bg noises are also nice and pleasant. I love the options for beginners, intermediate and advanced.

### 5/5 — 続けられています

*2025-09-04*

初級の5分で、488呼吸をしています。本当は478呼吸がしたかったんですが、このアプリには無いし、希望の秒数で設定する事もできないので、アプリに登録されている488でやっています。
秒数と時間を自分で設定できるようになるといいなぁ。

**Developer response:** 【2026/8/19追記】ご要望の呼吸法（吸うー止めるー吐くの秒数）をカスタマイズできる機能をバージョン12.0.0にて実装しました。今後ともMeisoをよろしくお願い致します。

【2025/10/6追記】バージョン10.0.0にて478呼吸ができるようになりました。今後ともMeisoをよろしくお願い致します。
----
高評価頂きまして、ありがとうございます。また機能追加要望も頂きましてありがとうございます。秒数と時間の完全カスタマイズにつきましては、アプリのサイズがかなり大きくなってしまう等実現難易度が高いため、取り急ぎ478呼吸ができるように改修したいと思います。次回のアップデート（10.0.0）にて実装させて頂きますので、今しばらくお待ち頂けますでしょうか。よろしくお願い致します。
