Effective and Reliable

It is such an effective and simple app, giving you everything you need to incorporate breathing practices into your daily routine. I’m not one to usually stick to there kind of apps or be consistent, but the way it is structured is phenomenal. There is a calendar that shows you the minutes done per day and a customisable section to adjust the type of breathing for the day. And my god, it is free. What a gift. Download it and devote some attention to your breathing to improve the quality of your life. This app is totally worth it.

Just does it’s job no fluff

No pay wall, no ads, no add on features no bs. Just a quiet app with no extra bells and whistles to distract. Being mindful is just to be in your space and breathe. Well done developers. I like the vox very much. I’d use the singing bowl but I don’t like the twangs at the ends but can’t make everyone happy. Thank you very much. Great app for my phone

2024-03-08

Beautiful

Took me a few minutes to work out how to slide across to find more breath work sessions . So calming speedy pulse dropped

2023-11-11

Really helps

Great app. Easy to use. Has really helped me to take longer breaths instead of short, shallow ones. Has helped to reduce my anxiety.

2023-10-07

Neat little app

I highly recommend the Breathing Zone app to anyone looking for a simple and effective way to reduce stress and improve their overall well-being. The app offers a variety of guided breathing exercises that are easy to follow and can be customized to fit your individual needs. I've found the app to be especially helpful for managing insomnia. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a way to improve their breathing and overall well-being

Breathing Zone Healing zone

The breathing zone app helps me regulate my mental fatigue but allowing me to take breaks , just to breathe.

2021-10-02

Not recommended for iwatch

I bought this for my iwatch but you can’t get rid of the notification beeps unless you put the watch on silent. There’s also no pattern like pictured just a boring circle. Settings don’t sync with phone and no haptic vibrations. Waste of money with no trial period to figure these things out beforehand. Don’t recommend.

2021-03-29

Cost Deceiving

It says $4.99 but it fails to tell you it’s $4.99 a week . Didn’t think it was that good .

Focused Elegant Inexpensive

This is a good app. Its web page doesn’t do it justice.

If you want reminders, inspirational quotes, expert teachers, celebrities reading bedtime stories, or a community, then this app isn’t for you.

This is an elegantly crafted app that offers four breathing patterns whose breath per minute rate and session duration - up to 1 hour - can be adjusted. There are options for voice, music or other sounds. You swipe between 3 screens: an activity monitor, settings, and the minimalist breathing space where there are no buttons; you simply tap to start or pause and long tap to end a session. At the end of your first session a popup will request access to the Health app to sync your session’s mindfulness minutes.

I’ve been looking for ages for an uncluttered well designed breathing/meditation app that syncs to Apple’s Health app and doesn’t need a monthly subscription and doesn’t have ads. I can’t remember how many similar apps I’ve tried and deleted. I wasn’t sure about this as the information on the app store and its web page is fairly basic and the developer is not contactable to ask questions but it costs less than a cup of coffee so I took a risk. Very happy I did. Breathing Zone is my new app for daily controlled breathing and meditation sessions.

If I can suggest any improvements, it would be to add options for breath pauses to the breathing patterns. And please keep the app’s simplicity.

2020-11-29

No updates

It’s a good app but they haven’t updated in years. Probably something better on the market now.

Very unhappy with updated version

Utterly disappointed when I updated this app. It was brilliant before, easy to use, liked the celestial choir and the sound of surf which rolled out making it sound as if you take a walk on the beach. It was a regular thing I introduced to my clients and recommended getting it. New version does not have the celestial choir sound any more, the water/surf sound is harshly cut off which jerks, and the settings are quite complicated to use. I wished I had never updated it and kept the previous version. Can you please add the missing sound again and adjust the surf sound so that it is relaxing again to use it. Thanks.

Hmmm, nobody seems to have responded.

Has helped me to relax

I do the breathing zone exercise, three times a day. Just love it, keeps my mind and body relaxed.

2018-05-02

Easy

It's good but it needs to have a chart with your weekly progress

It's hard to breathe 'normally' into the analyser because you're overthinking it so it took me a little while to get it set where I felt it was helping me. Now I really look forward to using it and love how the graphic reminds me to relax and allow my lungs to fill fully and completely empty. Great little app.

2017-03-05

Great app, easy to understand & use.

Very helpful.

Jiujitsu athlete

I am a jiujitsu competitor and have won many championships through focus of breath. Great idea and great app

2017-01-10

Fabulous app

This app with it's beautiful visual effect and clear instructions is a great aid in settling down an overactive sympathetic nervous system - much gratitude- thank you

2015-11-21

Good

Good for relaxing; great for sleeping.

2015-09-14

Nice and simple

I really like this app for its sheer simplicity. It works well for me and I can use it for those times at work where I need to stop and remember to breathe.

2015-02-03

No good

This app really is a waste of time and money. Would be ok if free as you won't use it more than once when you see how pointless it is. Definitely not worth 6 bucks. Just breathe in and out slowly and save yourself the money

2014-11-07

Great app - needs finishing touches

Great app. I'm a heavy snorer and I believe this app has made me breath more easily at night. Would be a five star product of you could add a few more different tones and create a better calendar for record purposes.

Very helpful

2014-01-23

FANTASTIC!!! 😃

I really love this app! It's perfect for reducing anxiety and regulating your breathing. And unlike meditation, you can feel comfortable using it anywhere, with your headphones in of course! I love the visual and the voice and the 'ding' combined. It's a great app and I would recommend it to anyone!

2013-11-04

Great guided breathing app

I find this Guided Breathing app really well made and very simple to use. Highly recommend.

2013-05-11

Not worth it

For $4.50 all it did was make me light headed, didn't help my anxiety, I'll stick to meditation apps which actually work and don't cost the earth!

2012-11-19

No more Chest infections

When I gave up smoking 12 years ago I was always getting chest infections because not enough fresh oxygen and blood wasn't getting down to the bottom of my lungs, I was constantly on antibiotics, it has now been 3 months since using this application and I haven't been to the hospital once! You really don't know how much this application & deep breathing exercise has changed my life! Thank you so much!

2012-07-31

Good app

Helps slow breathing and relaxes the mind.

2011-12-07

Very simple and effective

I suffer from reoccur-ant bouts of panic. With this app I have reduced attacks in severity and occurrence to a minimal, tolerable and manageable level within 10days of downloading. I only use it 1-2 times a day for 5-10 mins.

2011-10-21

Previously a great app.. but disastrous update..

Simple to use; simple to set. Put on headphones & you can use it anywhere. It WAS the best on the market.

However this recent update 1.7 is silent on iPhone silent mode. (This is unnecessary as you can set App to silent manually if that's what you want). The practical impact is that I can't use it now. To hear the sound prompts I have to take iPhone off silent mode, introducing anxiety due to the risk of phone calls or text messages shocking me out relaxation.. Surely, the reverse of what's needed..

A bad move from my point of view; I hope this gets fixed soon..

2011-05-12

Try it and relax

I had my doubts at first but now I'm a convert. This app has helped me with breathing and relaxation. I like its customised options - the best among the other apps currently in its class that I've tried. Try it, relax, enjoy!

2011-03-23

Well worth it!

I do 15 minutes of deep breathing every morning and have been using a breathing exercise cd for a while now. But because I am able to breath a lot more deeply now I have outgrown it. This is why I am so glad I purchased this app to replace it. You can't ever outgrow it because it allows you to adjust the length of the breath down as far as 2 breaths a minute.

2011-01-09

Love it!

So simple, so effective.

2010-08-24

Excellent!

Great for anyone with anxiety, perfect before bed for a good night sleep. Well done.
