## What is Vagus+?

Improve your mental and physical well-being in minutes with breathing.

Mindful breathing is a simple, natural, and neuroscience-based breathing exercise that regulates the nervous system (the vagus nerve), helping bring your body and mind back into harmony.

Only a few minutes of mindful breathing a day can help improve stress, anxiety, focus, energy, sleep, digestion, heart rate, HRV, lung capacity, and more.

Join thousands of users already using Vagus+ to improve their well-being.

The app is 100% customizable: you can choose the breathing rhythm, duration, theme, animation, and bell.

DEVELOPER

I'm Alexandre, an independent developer from France and a mindful breathing enthusiast.

I discovered this guided meditation practice while looking for a natural way to improve my stress and sleep issues — and the results were truly life-changing. That's when I decided to create an iOS app so others could experience the same benefits.

### 5/5 — Très bien 👍

*2026-09-02*

Super application je recommande fortement. Je regrette juste le fait qu’il n’y ai pas plus de fonctionnalités gratuite. Merci au développeur pour cette application 👍👍

**Developer response:** Merci pour votre avis. L'application ne collecte aucune donnée personnelle et il n'y a pas de publicité. C'est donc grâce aux nombreux utilisateurs payants que je peux vivre de ma passion, même si l'application est largement utilisable gratuitement. Je travaille également sur d'autres fonctionnalités. Merci encore.

### 5/5 — Bonne application ✨

*2026-08-20*

Merci au développeur pour cette application qui est simple d'utilisation et qui permet d'évaporer le stress et les tensions qu'il y a en nous.
J'ai fait une séance de respiration et une séance de méditation, je me sens + détendue et moins stressée.
Je vais d'avantage continué à utiliser cette application et par la suite j'opterai peut-être pour l'abonnement prémium pour avoir des thèmes et sons variés.
PS : Dans l'avenir, il serait bien qu'il y ait un excercice dans lequel une voix parle en mode ASMR, en nous guidant.

**Developer response:** Merci beaucoup pour votre avis.
