Spira – Daily Breath Habit

A breath before each impulsive scroll. Block the apps that pull you in, and let Spira meet you with a short breathing exercise instead.

Spira turns the apps that pull you in into reminders to breathe.

Pick the apps you tend to open on autopilot — Instagram, TikTok, X, whatever yours are. The next time you try to open one, Spira intercepts with a 30–90 second guided breath. When you're done, choose how long to unlock the app, or close it and move on.

HOW IT WORKS

• Block any apps you want to use less • When you open them, breathe first • Unlock for 5, 15, or 30 minutes — or skip and reclaim the moment • Set a daily goal of breaths and track your streak
