Form Meets Function

I’ve had this app on my phone for a long time. It’s been very helpful in times of need.
The variety of sounds is exactly right. Commuting on the train the white noise or water really nullify the ambient sounds (with noise canceling headphones). There have been many occasions where the other sounds were helpful and welcome.
I don’t use apps for meditation because I don’t want to regulate my breathing, just observe it. However, when stressed, super anxious or the chatter in my head is just too loud, this app is my go-to friend!
I just finished reading “Breath” by James Nestor (recommend) and he puts forth a 5.5 second inhale/exhale as the optimum baseline for establishment of coherence and peak efficiency (oh yeah, and breathe through your nose). Needless to say, 5.5 BPM is simple to setup in this app. Every other app I’ve looked at clocks seconds without an option for increments.
Anyway, if you are looking for a simple and functional timer with a very generous feature set (optional technicolor expanding flower included) mash the download button now (and breathe through your nose!)

Perfect, Free, Private, Small Download

I bow to the makers of this app. They have designed Breathing Zone with all of the ideal considerations: choice of breathing pattern, rate and duration, a variety of pleasing colors (red is perfect for night use), sounds that are easy on the ear (for me, white noise is great for eyes-closed breathwork), a lovely visual … and all in an app that is very small memory-wise, so it doesn’t take up much space for people with smaller capacity phones. And it’s free! If that weren’t already good enough, the app makers were thoughtful enough not to collect private/personally identifying data, just the bare minimum to be able to see how the app is used and to make appropriate improvements. It’s also kept up to date, so you’re not downloading something that’s been abandoned years ago. Thank you, you are so kind to provide this gift for our health and well-being!

LOVE THIS APP

I absolutely love this app!! It helps me regulate my breathing when my Muscular Dystrophy breathing flares up. It also helps me relax & get to sleep within 10 minutes! I've seen reviews that say their set breathing gets changed. I haven't had that issue but do know that you can reset your breathing rate at any time on the 3rd screen in settings. There are several sounds to choose from. I personally find the Indian Bansuri very relaxing. Love, love, love this app!! I just wish it could be set for longer than an hour

*EDIT ~ still love this app but am confused about the "breaths per hour". It always says 313. I'm a very shallow breather so I don't think that's correct.
