息が浅くなって、心臓の音がうるさくなってきた。 そんなときに開くだけで、画面が呼吸のリズムを引き受けてくれます。 Minamo は、不安が強くなった瞬間の「どうすればいいかわからない」を減らすためのアプリです。考える力が残っていなくても、ふくらむ光を見て息を合わせるだけ。あとで振り返ると、その波を自分が乗り越えた記録が残っています。 [呼吸ペーサー] ゆっくり広がって縮む光に合わせて、息をするだけの画面です。 4-4 ベーシック / 4-7-8 リラックス / 4-4-4-4 ボックス / 5-5 ディープ の4つから、そのときの状態に合うリズムを選べます。切り替えは1タップです。 [グラウンディング 5-4-3-2-1] 「目に見えるものを5つ」「聞こえる音を3つ」と、五感を順にたどる手順を1画面ずつ案内します。頭の中でふくらむ考えから、いま自分がいる場所へ意識を戻していきます。 [頼れる人へワンタップ] 家族や主治医など、頼れる相手を1件登録しておけます。 ホーム右上のボタンを押すだけで発信できるので、番号を探す手間がありません。 [発作の記録とグラフ] 強さ(軽い / 中くらい / 強い)と、きっかけ(人混み、電車・乗り物、仕事・学校、家、体調、その他)を選ぶだけで残せます。直近30日のグラフと、今月・先月の回数を並べて表示するので、自分の傾向が見えてきます。 [乗り越えたあとの画面] 記録を保存すると、労いのメッセージと「今月何回目の波を乗り越えたか」が表示されます。やり過ごせたことを、自分の実績としてちゃんと残すための画面です。 [ウィジェット] ホーム画面とロック画面にウィジェットを置けます。アプリを探さずに、そのまま呼吸ペーサーを開けます。 [Premium(買い切り)] ・雨の音 — 環境音を流しながら、呼吸やグラウンディングを続けられます ・マインドフル・バブル — 浮かぶ光をタップして消していく、意識を逸らすための小さな画面 一度購入すれば、継続課金はありません。 [プライバシー] 記録した内容と緊急連絡先は、すべて端末の中だけに保存されます。アカウント登録は不要です。購入手続き以外は、インターネット接続がなくても使えます。 [ご利用にあたって] 本アプリはリラクゼーションを目的としたものであり、医療行為に代わるものではありません。心身の不調が続く場合は医療機関にご相談ください。

About

WaterDone

WaterDone is the lightest way to keep sipping before you get thirsty. Had a sip? Tap once. That's the whole app. No amounts to type. No daily target. The goal is a rhythm: another sip within the interval you choose. A little drop dries out as time passes and fills up when you drink, and a gentle word tells you how you're doing — "Hydrated", "Time for a sip". • One tap from your Lock Screen or Home Screen widget, without opening the app • See when your next sip is due, right on the home screen • A gentle nudge before you dry out. You pick the interval (2–4 hours) and the hours it can reach you. Works fine with notifications off, too • Tapped by mistake? Undo in one tap • Just ate? Tap “I just ate” and your next nudge moves later (it isn’t counted as a sip) • Optionally get one gentle cue after a workout • Run “After my bath” in Shortcuts to log one sip without opening the app • A streak and a simple calendar of every sip • Made for iPhone Duo's larger display, too • No account. Water records and settings are stored on your device. If you turn on Hot Days, your approximate location is sent to a weather service WaterDone Pro (auto-renewable subscription) • Log “I had a sip” from Apple Watch, with today’s count and next suggested time on complications • On hot days, optionally make your usual reminders arrive a little earlier using today’s forecast Logging, rhythm reminders, “I just ate”, widgets, and writing to Apple Health remain free. If Pro expires, your existing records are not deleted or hidden. Pro is available as a monthly or yearly auto-renewable subscription. A free trial appears only when the App Store reports that you are eligible. The subscription renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends, and you can manage or cancel it anytime in your Apple Account settings. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://zec-inc.jp/privacy Hydration that doesn't feel like homework. WaterDone is not medical advice and does not calculate how much water you need.
