Scenes vs DharmaMonk

Your phone doesn't have to stress you out. Scenes is a collection of handcrafted ambient worlds with built-in breathing exercises — designed to help you put down the scroll and pick up some calm. Each scene is a living, interactive artwork. Touch the screen and watch the world respond. Start a breathing session and let the scene guide you. Or just set your phone down and let it breathe on its own. Six scenes to explore: DRIFT — Luminous particles floating through space, reacting to your touch. Choose from color palettes, instruments, gravity modes, and particle shapes. Every session is different. RAIN — A storm on the windowpane. Adjust thunder, lightning, fog, and intensity. A rainy night, whenever you need one. FROST — Tap the glass and watch ice crystals spread from your fingertip. Delicate, meditative, and oddly satisfying. RADIANCE — Born from an original painting. Hundreds of brushstrokes flow inward toward a central point. Drag your finger across them and strum the scene like a harp — each stroke plays a note on a pentatonic scale. Grab the center and move it anywhere. CORAL REEF — An underwater world. Synthesized whale songs drift through cathedral reverb. Tap coral and watch bioluminescence pulse outward. Fish swim toward your touch. Swipe to create currents. NYC AT NIGHT — The Empire State and Chrysler buildings in art deco detail. Tap the sky for fireworks. Swipe for aurora borealis. Long press for a city-wide blackout with a cascading floor-by-floor restore. Live water reflections mirror every lit window. Breathe together: Every breathing session you complete adds to our community counter — a shared total of mindful minutes created by Scenes users everywhere. Anonymous — we never know who you are. But there's something powerful about knowing you're not breathing alone. Features: • Guided breathing exercises in every scene (4-7-8, box breathing, and more) • Interactive — every scene responds to touch, swipe, and long press • Generative audio that evolves and never loops • Deep per-scene settings (colors, intensity, weather, palettes, and more) • Haptic feedback tuned to each interaction • Sleep timer with gentle fade-out • Screenshot capture to save your favorite moments • No accounts, no ads, no data collection beyond anonymous session duration • Works offline • Designed for OLED displays More scenes coming soon. Free forever. No catch. Just breathe.
