Holdfast: Freedive Trainer

Apnea & Breath-Hold Tables

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

Holdfast 2.0: tables that adapt to you, contractions you can measure and a weekly target. Launch price on Lifetime until Nov 30. Holdfast is a calm, focused breath-hold trainer for freedivers, spearos, and anyone learning to sit comfortably with the urge to breathe. Run proven CO₂ and O₂ tables on your iPhone — or entirely on your Apple Watch, screen-off and haptic-guided — so every session feels effortless. WHY HOLDFAST - CO₂ tables to blunt the urge to breathe; O₂ tables to extend your hold. - Guided sessions with gentle haptic and audio cues — eyes closed, no screen needed. - Built for Apple Watch: start, run, and finish a full session from your wrist, screen-off, driven by taps. - Progress that motivates: history, streaks, personal bests, and clean charts. - Heart rate during holds via Apple Health (optional). - 100% offline. No account, no sign-up, ever. FREE FOREVER - The full CO₂ and O₂ table trainer, on iPhone and Apple Watch. - Session history, streaks, and personal bests. HOLDFAST PREMIUM - Custom table builder — design your own ramps. - Training plans — structured, progressive programs. - Advanced analytics — deeper trends and recovery insight. TRAIN SAFELY Holdfast is for dry training only. Never practice breath-holding in or near water alone, and never hyperventilate. Shallow-water blackout gives no warning. Stop immediately if you feel dizzy, lightheaded, or tingling, and talk to a doctor before starting breath-hold training if you have heart, lung, blood-pressure, or pregnancy concerns. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything runs on your device. No account, no tracking; your health data stays in Apple Health. — Holdfast Premium is an auto-renewing subscription. - Monthly $3.99 / Annual $29.99, with a 7-day free trial (USD; prices vary by region). - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. - It renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your account is charged within 24 hours prior to renewal. - Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.

Holdfast 2.0 • Tables that adapt. Rate each session. After two clean sessions that felt Easy or Just right, your holds step up; if you have to breathe early, they ease off a step. Every table stays sized from your breath check (or your experience), within safe limits. • Measure what happens. During a hold, tap the ring when a contraction starts, or press and hold when you need to breathe. Progress now shows when contractions begin and your real best holds. The same gestures work on Apple Watch. • A weekly target instead of a daily streak. Train 3 days a week, or set your own. • Gentle reminders on the days and at the time you choose. • Settle in first. A calm minute of paced breathing before round 1, with your live heart rate when your watch joins. Skip it anytime. • Sound. Chimes, a spoken guide and calm ambience. With cues and ambience on, your session keeps going with the phone locked. • New programs, including a free 2-week Starter. • Widgets, a Live Activity and watch complications. See today's table at a glance, or start it from Siri, Control Center or the Action button on Apple Watch Ultra. • Your watch knows today's table and runs the same plan as your phone. Sessions you start on iPhone run on your paired watch too, and the summary shows how your heart slowed during holds. • Everything new is in Spanish too. Dry training only — never hold your breath in water alone.
