The simple visual cue sits in your peripheral vision, letting you focus inward while maintaining rhythm. HOW IT WORKS Tap Start and follow the cube. Each face displays your current instruction as it rotates smoothly through the cycle. Customize timing to match your comfort level. INTERVENTION PATTERNS To keep longer sessions engaging, BreathCube includes optional pattern interruptions: • Explosive Exhale — A short, forceful breath release every 7th exhale • Long Hold — An extended breath retention after every 17th inhale These interventions rotate the cube in unexpected directions, preventing autopilot and deepening your practice. FEATURES • Works completely offline • No account required • No data collection whatsoever • Customizable breath timing • Minimal, calming interface • Aurora-inspired color palette PHILOSOPHY BreathCube follows MVD—Minimal Viable Design.
