Box Breathing Break
Read full descriptionHide full description
Box Breathing Break is a simple guided timer for box breathing sessions. Follow a clean breathing circle through inhale, hold, exhale, and hold phases. Choose 3, 4, 5, or 6 second phases, then set a session by rounds or by time. The app is intentionally quiet: no account, no feed, no streak pressure, and no clutter. Optional sound cues can help you stay with the rhythm without watching the screen. If you choose to grant Apple Health permission, completed breathing sessions of at least one minute can be saved as mindful minutes. Health logging is optional and the app does not read Apple Health data.
