Braele: Box & 4-7-8 Breathing

Calm anxiety, focus & sleep

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Sessions up to an hour, nine patterns and a voice that breathes with you. Start with a free week of Pro, or pay once and keep it forever. No account needed. Take a breath. Braele is a beautifully simple breathing app that helps you find calm, ease anxiety, focus, or fall asleep in a few minutes. Box breathing and the physiological sigh are free forever: no account, no sign-up, works offline. Braele has no courses and no guided meditations. It does one thing: it breathes with you. Follow the living orb as it expands and contracts, with gentle phase-synced haptics on every inhale, hold, and exhale. A calm voice (Sarah or Brian, your pick) says each cue at the moment it happens, so you can breathe with your eyes closed or the phone face down. Add optional ambient sound and pick the pattern that fits the moment. THE PATTERN LIBRARY • Box breathing (4-4-4-4): a steady, paced rhythm for focus and calm • 4-7-8 breathing: wind down and ease insomnia before sleep • Physiological sigh: two inhales and one long exhale, free whenever you need it • Coherent (5-5): also called resonance breathing, slow diaphragmatic breaths at a calm, balanced pace • Calming (4-6): a longer exhale that activates the vagus nerve to ease anxiety and stress • 7-11: seven in, eleven out, for when panic rises • Triangle: box breathing without the second hold • Energizing (2-2): a quick morning lift • Your own: build a custom pattern, second by second BREATHING FOR... • Anxiety: three sighs now, longer exhales after • Panic attacks: the fastest pattern, for when you cannot think • Anger: sixty seconds before you answer • Sleep: 4-7-8 in bed, belly breathing earlier in the evening • Relaxation: five minutes of belly breathing • Blood pressure: ten minutes of coherent breathing a day • Running: train the low breath off the run • Labor: the slow rhythm and the light one Each is a short guide in the app: what to do now, what comes next, and the daily habit. Tap one and its patterns become your home screen. Pin two to six patterns to your Home tab and tell Braele what you are here for (calm, focus, sleep, energy); it suggests the pattern for the moment. New to this? Start with box breathing and follow the orb for two minutes. BREATHE FROM ANYWHERE • Live Activity: your session runs on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, with a countdown ring for every phase • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets start your suggested pattern with one tap • Long-press the app icon for Breathe now, Box and your last pattern • "Hey Siri, start breathing in Braele": works from Siri, Shortcuts and the Action button SEE YOUR PRACTICE GROW • A day streak, a practice calendar, and milestones • Share cards for a session, a streak or your totals, made to post • Saves your sessions to Apple Health as mindful minutes • Up to three gentle daily reminders • A tip a day, and the tips you have read kept in one place WHAT'S INSIDE • A calming animated orb, not a flat timer • Voice guidance in six languages, two voices, or off • Phase-synced haptics: feel every breath, even eyes closed • Ambient sound: brown, pink, or white noise, plus rain and ocean • Light, dark or system appearance • Support inside the app: write to us and read the answer there • Private by design: no account, no sign-up, works offline BRAELE PRO: A FREE WEEK, OR PAY ONCE Box breathing, the physiological sigh and one ambient sound are free forever, and every guide is free to read. Braele Pro unlocks every pattern, every sound and the custom pattern builder. Start with a free week on the monthly plan, or buy Lifetime once and never see a renewal. The monthly plan renews automatically until cancelled; manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. Terms of Use: https://braele.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://braele.app/privacy Whether you need to slow a racing mind, focus before something hard, ease anxiety and stress, or drift off after a night of insomnia, a few slow breaths are enough. Open Braele and breathe.

  • This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

Longer sessions, up to an hour. With Pro, pick any length from 1 to 60 minutes, or choose Until I stop and end it when you are ready. The steps in Breathing for… now run the minutes they name: a 5 minute step takes 5 minutes. Braele feels more at home on your iPhone: hairline borders, buttons and cards that give under your thumb, and pickers that open as sheets sized to what is inside. It is also lighter and quicker to open. Fixed: reminders no longer schedule twice, a double tap on Start begins one countdown instead of two, and What's new no longer covers a session. Suggestions or feedback? Open Profile, tap Support and write to us.
