Regulate
Read full descriptionHide full description
Stone. Flame. Tide. Veil. Which one are you? Most breathwork apps treat every nervous system the same. Regulate doesn't. A 6-question scenario assessment — no labels, no diagnoses, just how your body actually reacts — places you in one of four tribes: • Stone — I hold the line. Steady, grounded, built to endure. • Flame — I burn bright. Intense, directional, fast-firing. • Tide — I move with the current. Cyclical, adaptive, rhythmic. • Veil — I soften the noise. Sensitive, protective, quiet. From that moment, the entire app speaks your tribe's language. Colors, copy, sessions, daily drop — all tuned for how your nervous system is built. ONE DAILY DROP. SHARED WITH YOUR TRIBE. Every morning, your tribe receives one hand-written micro-impulse — the same line, on the same day, for every Stone or Flame or Tide or Veil. Not a generic affirmation. A line in your tribe's voice. COHORT SESSIONS. Twice a day, your tribe practices together. The home screen shows anonymously how many in your tribe are breathing with you right now. 14 SCIENCE-BACKED TECHNIQUES. Box Breathing. 4-7-8. Wim Hof. Physiological Sighing. Coherent. Nadi Shodhana. Tactical Breath. Each recommended based on your tribe AND your current state. HRV BEFORE AND AFTER. Apple Health reads your heart-rate variability pre- and post-session. You see, in your own data, which techniques actually move your nervous system.

Kohaer

Find calm, one breath at a time. Kohaer turns your heart rhythm into a guide toward serenity. With heart coherence — a proven breathing technique — you ease your nervous system in just a few minutes a day. Connect your Bluetooth heart rate sensor (Polar H10 and compatible straps), follow the breathing circle, and watch your coherence settle in real time. Inside Kohaer: • Visual breathing guide — a circle that expands and contracts at the pace you choose (4, 5, 6 or 7 breaths per minute), with an optional sound cue. • Real-time coherence — your coherence score and heart rate are shown during the session, measured from your actual heartbeat. • Sessions your way — 3, 5, 10 minutes, or a custom duration. • Clear summary — average score, time spent in coherence, and the session curve. • History — track your progress day after day. Privacy by design. Kohaer runs entirely on your iPhone. No data is collected, no account, nothing sent to the cloud. Your sessions stay with you. Please note: Kohaer requires a Bluetooth heart rate sensor (a chest strap such as the Polar H10). The app does not measure heart rate from the iPhone alone. A few minutes of mindful breathing are enough to change your day. Start now.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Kohaer at none against Regulate's 3. Kohaer also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
