Something feels different. Your period has changed. You’re waking up at 3 AM. Your energy isn’t what it used to be. Your mood feels unpredictable. Brain fog showed up out of nowhere. You may not know whether it’s hormones, stress, sleep, perimenopause, or all of it. That’s why we built Harmoni. Harmoni by thePause is an AI perimenopause and menopause app for women 30+. Track your symptoms, cycle, sleep, mood and activity in one place, and talk them through with Harmoni, your AI health companion, by voice or text. NEW: START FREE, UPGRADE WHEN YOU’RE READY Harmoni is now free to use. Track your symptoms, cycle, sleep and mood, try guided meditations and chat with Harmoni at no cost. When you want more, Harmoni Premium unlocks your daily Resilience Score, a shareable PDF report for your healthcare provider, the full meditation library, and expanded conversations with Harmoni by text and voice. TALK TO HARMONI, OUT LOUD Tap the orb and just talk. Harmoni responds in a natural voice, in real time, like a conversation with someone who knows your data. Ask why you slept badly, what might be behind your hot flashes, or how your week went. Prefer typing? Switch to text anytime. HARMONI REMEMBERS YOU Every conversation is saved, and Harmoni keeps the context, so you never have to tell your story from the start. DEEPER APPLE HEALTH AND APPLE WATCH INTEGRATION Harmoni reads HRV, blood oxygen (SpO2), stand hours and move time from Apple Health, with up to 30 days of history, and uses these signals in your insights and conversations. SIRI SHORTCUTS Log a symptom, check your stats or open Harmoni hands-free. Just ask Siri. TRACK WHAT YOUR BODY IS TELLING YOU Hormonal changes can show up in dozens of ways.

CONNECT THE DOTS WITH AI Sleep x symptoms. Mood x movement. Hydration x how you feel. Cycles x symptom changes.

YOUR WEARABLE ALREADY KNOWS PART OF THE STORY Connect Apple Health and Apple Watch, Oura Ring, Fitbit, Garmin or Whoop, and Harmoni brings their sleep, activity and heart data together with the symptoms only you can feel. For the smoothest experience, connect through Apple Health. No wearable? Harmoni works without one, too.

About

Anchored

Read full description

Anchored is a quiet place to understand how you attach, steady yourself when connection feels shaky, and practice your way toward earned security. THE QUIZ Ten questions place you on the two dials behind attachment research: how loudly distance sets off your alarm, and how firmly closeness makes you guard the door. You get a map with your dot on it, in plain language, not a label to carry around. IN THE MOMENT For the 2am moments: guided breathing with four evidence-based patterns, a steadying flow for when you feel activated, one for when the wall is going up, and a pause for the text you might regret. All of it free, always. THE JOURNEY Four stages, from noticing your pattern to living beyond it, mixing short readings with the practices that make them real. Built from sixty years of attachment research, the same ideas behind the books that probably brought you here. UNDERSTANDING How to be with someone who attaches differently than you. Guides and practices for loving an anxious, avoidant, fearful-avoidant, or secure partner, without trying to fix anyone. YOUR JOURNAL Private, on this phone. Your words stay yours. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No tracking. Everything you write lives on your device and never reaches a server. Deleting the app deletes it all. And no streaks, so there is nothing to feel behind on. FREE AND PLUS Free forever: the quiz and your results, breathing, the activated and wall flows, the pause before a text, the whole breakup track, your journal, and the first journey stage. Anchored Plus opens the full journey, every guided practice and rehearsal, the pulled-away and dating-again tracks, and your results history. One week free, then $59.99 a year or $9.99 a month. Cancel anytime. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS Anchored Plus is an auto-renewable subscription, offered as Anchored Plus Yearly ($59.99 per year) or Anchored Plus Monthly ($9.99 per month). Both begin with a one-week free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple account when the free trial ends. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and you can manage or cancel it anytime in your App Store settings. Privacy Policy: https://anchoredapp.net/privacy.html Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Anchored is a self-help and educational tool. It is not therapy, diagnosis, or medical care. If you are in crisis, the Get Help button is on every screen, day or night. Questions? hello@anchoredapp.net
