Universal Breathing User Reviews

Love it.

I love this app. I’ve had it on my other iPhones and I’m hooked. Simple and effective.

Issues with security, sound, clarity, ‘extras’

When I click info icon, i get a message saying the connection is not secure and the website may be impersonating saagara.com to steal my info - is this an issue with your security certificate? The sound is not working, even after clicking on the loudspeaker icons and checking settings in phone. The calendar/timetable is not clear to me - what are the numbers at the left side? There seems little extra in the pay version compared to the free version - what is the $7.99 for? If these were all ok rating would be 4. Now when I look at it I just feel tense. Can anyone help?

Sound

Sound stopped working second day

NoSound

After two sessions the sound has stopped working. Please can I have a refund. I have reloaded the app twice and nothing has changed.

Excellent

Been using this for years.. recommended by a former seal as another effective tool for breathing and meditation.. eternally grateful..

Worth the effort to figure out

If you can’t get the sound to work, try toggling your phone off of silent mode.

This app is not very user friendly and takes some time to figure out how to use but in my opinion it is worth the effort. I enjoy the auditory cues for your breath and helps me stay focused on my breathing vs counting the length. Wish it were a little more intuitive to use.

How do you come out of the app?

Very basic but does the job. Only problem is I’m struggling to come out of the app once I’ve finished. There doesn’t seem to be an exit, please can someone help with this?

Beautiful

I have been using this app for years. The sound and visualizations along with customization options are perfect. This is one of my favorite apps ever.

Run away

This app is a nightmare, installed it keeps popping up on its own, deleted twice keeps coming back, sound doesn’t work right.

Broken app

I purchased this app and have been using and referring broadly for years. Now it doesn’t open or stay opened. Can’t contact company bc contact form closed. Major let down! When will be fixed? Saagara let’s go!

No sound

Sound did not work, defeats the purpose of an app to guide meditation. I deleted it.

No support available.

This app was last updated three years ago, meaning 2017. When I went to the website to get support, it said “Due to the high volume of emails we receive, we are temporarily closing our contact form.” That means they are willing to take your money, but won’t do anything to support you. Be aware.

Easy and simple

Very simple app, and thats why I like it! All you need to do if sync your breathing to the sounds and you’re good to go. Perfect if you want to meditate with your own thoughts instead of having someone tell you what you should be thinking about.

Customise button does not work, would like a refund as this is what I purchased it for

Beautiful, grounded and informative

Pranayama Free:
Ease of use (7/10):
Nice menu layout and design. With a good earthy choice of colours and theme.
UI (8/10):
It is designed well with menus easy to follow. Some information may be a little difficult to understand, but the information menu is very useful and handy.
Features (4/10):
Being free most features are locked behind a paywall. It has a tracker, breathing patterns, style and comes in many languages.
Sounds/Vibrations (5/10):
It has good sounds, nice and peaceful chimes, with volume control.
​Overall (6/10):
A great free version, but paid would definitely be better. It’s not subscription based, which is good.

No sound

Just installed and there is no sound. Using iPhone XS. iOS 13.

Want to upgrade but not for that price

Found the app very informative and easy to use. Have done all the levels but the price to upgrade to all the levels is WAY to much $$$$. Considering your basically just accessing different patterns for intermediate and advanced, a $2 app upgrade would have been more reasonable. Unfortunately having gone as far as I can with the app I now have to look elsewhere.

Doesn’t work

The paid version of the app only work in beginner. The company shut down their “contact” link.

The sound does not work?

Can you clarify why the sound doesn’t work? I tried all combination of buttons and nothing seems to work?

Sound Disappeared

Great app, I’ve used it for years but the sound disappeared. Very disappointed.
