When life feels loud, give your hands something satisfying to do. Haptic Box pairs touch-led haptics - the vibrations you feel through your phone - with gentle breathing patterns, sensory play and creative activities. Make time for a sensory break, explore a steady rhythm or follow the colour beneath your fingertips. Sensory preferences are personal. Whether you're neurodivergent, enjoy predictable tactile input or simply want a quieter activity, explore the rhythms and choose the intensity and motion settings that suit you. On anxious or overwhelming days, there is no score to beat: choose a simple activity and take it at your own pace. FEEL: A RHYTHM YOU CAN FOLLOW Haptics are part of the experience, not just a buzz at the end. Explore guided journeys and individual patterns, including Box Breathing, Ocean Swell and gradual ramp-down sessions. Feel breathing cues, rolling pulses and descending rhythms alongside matching visuals. Gentle transitions settle the visuals when you stop or restart. Use the adjustable tactile patterns as a focus for an everyday grounding routine, a breathing break or a quiet moment. Pick what feels comfortable, pause or stop whenever you like, and leave any pattern that does not suit you. CANVAS: COLOUR, TRACE AND CONNECT Colour 40 illustrated pictures with your finger. Begin with a pencil-line drawing and uncover its colours as you move, then finish with a burst of paint particles drawn from the picture itself. Connect the numbers in 16 Dot-to-dot pictures at your own pace. Lift your finger and resume where you left off. Complete the drawing to reveal its illustration and watch a short animation matched to the subject. Tap the finished picture to start a fresh drawing. Trace patterns, letters and words with feedback along the way and a celebratory finish. All Canvas sections - Trace, Fill, Words and Dot-to-dot - are free. FIDGET: TOUCH-REACTIVE PLAY Move your fingers across responsive visual fields and explore the shapes, colours and motion they create. MAKE IT YOUR OWN Adjust vibration intensity, choose reduced motion and use the available gentle settings. Pause or stop whenever you like. Optional voice prompts accompany guided journeys; Canvas picture and word names can be spoken when enabled. OPTIONAL PRO A one-time in-app purchase unlocks the Textures section and five premium Touch Field worlds. Explore the texture collection, including Ripple, Raindrop, Rolling Thunder, Drumbeat, Sandstorm and Silk, plus Arc, Vortex, Gravitic, Ripple and Cosmic Pinball. Pro is not a subscription. Existing Pro owners keep their unlocked content and can use Restore Purchases in Settings. The store shows the price before purchase. Haptic feedback varies with your phone's hardware and settings, and sensory experiences differ from person to person.
