Oxygen/CO2 Regulation: ReViiV aims to improve your lung capacity and balance the levels of oxygen and CO2 in your body by fostering the Bohr Effect, helping to alleviate symptoms like fatigue, breathlessness, and ‘brain fog’. 5. Regulated Immune System: ReViiV's breathing exercises are designed to keep your immune system in check, reducing inflammation and other immune-related symptoms often seen in Long-Haulers. 6. Olfactory Re-training: ReViiV incorporates specific exercises that can enhance your sensitivity to smell and taste, especially useful for Long-Haulers. 7. Breath-Holding: When you're ready, ReViiV introduces daily breath-holding exercises to help your body adapt to higher CO2 levels, improving overall body efficiency. 8.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: HeartMath at 4.9 against ReViiV's 4.5. HeartMath also leads on ratings volume (4.7K vs 8). ReViiV's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. ReViiV sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and HeartMath sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $39.00 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

HeartMath holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HeartMath has 4.7K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of ReViiV's written reviews are positive against 74% of HeartMath's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ReViiV ships an update monthly, HeartMath every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
