## What is Yumi?

Yumi is a little creature who lives in your iPhone, and knows what to do when anxiety or panic rises. Rest your hand on Yumi: a heartbeat rises under your palm, slows down, and yours follows. Every day you spend together, Yumi grows.

WHEN IT RISES
· Listen to your heart: your finger on the camera, 30 seconds of breathing with Yumi, and you watch your heart slow down
· Yumi's lock: your social apps stay closed until your heart has settled
· A heartbeat under your finger: co-breathing that truly soothes
· 6 guided breathing exercises: box breathing, heart coherence, and 4-7-8 to quiet overthinking at night
· 5-4-3-2-1 grounding for panic attacks, free forever

TO SOOTHE YOU
· 175 sounds: rain, fire, waves, white noise, with a sleep timer
· 124 coloring pages and two calm games, the firefly and the pebbles, no scores, no timers
· Prayers and words for every moment: Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist or no religion

A SMALL DAILY RITUAL
· Your mood, and a daily quote on a beautiful landscape to share
· At night, a candle you blow out for real, in the color of your mood
· Your mood tracker and journal: your moods, your patterns, your heart sessions
· A secret notebook, locked with a code, that no one else will read

YUMI GROWS WITH YOU
· Baby, then child, then adult, through your days together
· Yumi's room changes with the seasons and the holidays
· Talk to Yumi: Yumi listens and answers, any hour

YOUR PRIVACY, FOR REAL
· No account. No ads. Your words stay on your iPhone and in your private iCloud, never on our servers.

Yumi is not a substitute for professional care, and Listen to your heart is a moment of wellbeing, not a medical measurement. In distress, the app shows your country's crisis line, free to access, forever.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.4 — 2026-10-14

New: Yumi's lock. Pick the apps that pull you in: they stay closed until you've taken a moment to settle your heart with Yumi. Turn it on in Profile, turn it off whenever you want.

Also in this version:
· Listen to your heart: steadier readings, a clearer chart
· The coloring of the day follows seasons and holidays
· A new welcome on first launch
· Yumi has a fresh new look

### 1.0.3 — 2026-09-30

Listen to your heart, with Yumi.

Rest your finger on the camera, breathe with Yumi for thirty seconds, and watch your heart settle. At the end: your curve, your starting and ending numbers, and a card to share if you feel like it.

• My heart, in your Journal: every session is kept, dated, with its curve, sorted by week, then by month. On your iPhone and in your iCloud, nowhere else.
• Yumi's hatching, completely remade: a pearl egg floating in the light, two breaths together, and Yumi waking up inside a bubble of light. Already have a Yumi? Relive it in your Profile: "Watch the hatching again".
• The evening candle feels more real than ever: the wax takes on the color of today's mood, it drips slowly, and when you blow, a wisp of smoke rises. Yumi says good night, then falls asleep.
• Gestures, shown: holding Yumi, blowing out the candle, guiding the firefly, stacking the pebbles. A short animation shows you how.
• Prayers: under each text, what it means. And the list now fits in two columns.

Also: the sound player is easier to read while you move around the app; the quotes in your Journal show the right day, even after midnight.

Listen to your heart is a moment of well-being, not a medical measurement.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-09-24

Yumi reaches out on the days that matter.

• The morning Yumi's room changes season, or gets decorated for a holiday, Yumi tells you.
• Christmas, New Year's Day, Valentine's, Halloween, Easter: Yumi is there, and says so.
• The day Yumi grows up, you're the first to know.
• Still two notifications a day at most. Never more — that's the promise.

Two new worlds for the firefly: the autumn garden and Halloween night, 50 treasures each. And the pebble river now changes with the seasons.

Also: notifications now start working the moment you install the app; the evening reminder no longer skips a day after a restless night; your journal only keeps the days you actually lived, and you can write in it at any hour of the night; and "Manage my subscription" finally opens the right page. The app is also lighter: 40 MB smaller.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-09-17

A new background that breathes with you during breathing exercises and Time with Yumi. Yumi now responds to your touch. In coloring, a new button helps you find the last areas. A lighter app and English translation fixes.

### 1.0 — 2026-09-15

No release notes.
