Features & Capabilities

Respire: Mindful Breathing helps you reduce daily stress with simple, guided breathing sessions. By following the shape’s movement, you are guided toward heart coherence, a practice with proven health benefits. Regular practice—three sessions a day—provides maximum benefits, and Respire lets you set reminders for any time of day to support self-care.

The app offers a Free version with unlimited guided sessions, customizable vibrations, a variety of sounds, an intuitive reminder system, light and dark themes, widgets, and Apple Health integration. Respire Plus (a lifetime purchase) unlocks longer sessions, additional breathing techniques (box breathing, 4-7-8, etc.), a timer, new nature sounds, and an enhanced control center. The design respects privacy—no account or email required—and the app is suitable for users of all ages.

Having a nice breathing app is important to me. The app I was currently using just wasn’t cutting it. It had some problems and is not being supported. I have spent a lot of time searching around for a decent breathing app that just gets the basics right. Most of them are way too complicated and expensive. This one nails it. Plus I don’t want another subscription to pay for. I love the graphics and the sounds. I only wish it was easier to get to my favorite breathing routines from the Home Screen. This app is a joy to use.

A minimalist approach works well. I wish there was a fully tactile mode that timed exhales as well as inhales. Sometimes it’s nice to breathe with one’s eyes closed.
