## What is RLX?

A calmer day. A gentler evening.

RLX helps you find a healthier balance between your screen and yourself. Take a breathing break, meditate, clear your head in your journal or wind down with My evening: your exercise, sleep sound and timer together. Set boundaries for distracting apps and make room for what feels good. On iPhone and iPad, with no subscription, ads or account.

MY EVENING
My evening remembers your exercise, favourite sound and sleep timer. Settle in with breathing, a body scan or one of two new visualizations narrated by your chosen iOS voice. Then let the sound continue with your screen locked. Brief guidance is there if you wake in the night, too. In the morning, record how you slept, alongside your sleep recording and available stages from Apple Health if connected.

A MOMENT OF CALM, YOUR WAY
Take a minute for yourself. Breathe along, follow a short meditation or write about what's on your mind. Choose from 17 breathing rhythms and 18 short text-guided meditations. Make time for a simple movement exercise or a short walk, too. Find what feels right for you today.

YOUR APPS, YOUR BOUNDARIES
Choose apps, categories and websites with Apple Screen Time. Block them now, set a daily limit or plan quiet hours. See your agreements together in your day view. Take a brief pause before opening selected apps, or choose a stronger temporary lock.

AGREEMENTS FOR YOUR FAMILY
Child Mode gives your child a calm home with breathing and quiet moments. A parent manages the agreements on the child's device with a local PIN.

AT HOME ON IPHONE AND IPAD
Use the spacious iPad layout or keep a small moment of calm close on iPhone. Light and dark appearances follow your preference. Widgets, Control Center and Shortcuts bring your choices within reach.

YOUR OWN SPACE
No paywall, tracking or RLX account. Your notes stay local. Optional Apple Health connections show your steps and sleep; you choose whether to save a mood. An optional iCloud copy keeps supported settings and progress in your own Apple Account.
