Life gets heavy sometimes. Your mind races, your heart carries more than it should, and your body tries to keep up. Nyano is built for those moments — the quiet ones, the overwhelming ones, the hopeful ones — when you just need something gentle in your corner. Nyano doesn’t judge you, rush you, or pressure you. It simply listens. With one quick scan, Nyano helps you understand your heart rate, breathing, stress, sleep, and core — not to overwhelm you, but to guide you. With one photo of your meal, it gives you insight you can understand without fear or guilt. With one tap, you can track your feelings, see your patterns, and remind yourself that it’s okay to slow down. Nyano was designed with care, softness, and human warmth — the kind of support we all wish we had on the days we don’t feel our strongest. Because you deserve something that makes life a little lighter. Because your health shouldn’t feel complicated. Because your feelings matter. Because you matter. Nyano is here to help you breathe, rest, and understand yourself — one gentle moment at a time. It is not a medical device nor a replacement for a medical doctor.

Both are free to download. Nyano sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per month and ai sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
