Shuu: 1-minute calm breaks
Easy breathing, zero clutter
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad
One-minute breathing breaks when you need them. Guided by plants, no faff. Free, offline, no tracking, no ads. Just calm, whenever you need it
Breathe for 60 seconds. Reset when life gets loud.
Shuu gives you quick pockets of quiet when you need them most. One tap, one minute, guided breathing that helps you recalibrate. No accounts, no tracking, no ads. Just you and a calm breathing space.
It works offline, so you can use it on the subway, mid-flight, or sitting in a field miles from any signal. Anywhere your mind needs a minute to settle.
Plants guide your breath. Visual and audio cues sync with your inhale and exhale so you can let go of the mental noise and just breathe. Each session is different—random plant animations keep it fresh, never repetitive.
Your breathing gets logged to Apple Health as mindful minutes if you want. Shuu also tracks your heart rate before and after each session, so you can see the calm happening in real time. When your heart rate drops meaningfully, you get a quiet celebration. No pressure, just acknowledgment.
Shuu is plant-based because plants breathe too. We thought it made sense. Vegan-friendly mindfulness apps are rare, so here's one.
What you get
One-minute breathing timer
Seven gentle cycles, visual and audio guidance, offline spatial audio if you have the headphones for it.
Daily affirmations
Gentle phrases that shift with the time of day. Personalize them with your name if you like. Morning feels different than midnight, so should your affirmations.
Apple Health integration
Mindful minutes logged automatically. Heart rate tracked before and after breathing. See your calm quantified, stored privately in Apple Health, never sent anywhere.
Offline spatial audio
Four-layered bird soundscape moves around you in 3D. Works offline on planes, trains, anywhere. Head tracking supported on AirPods Pro or Max. Just birds and breath.
Home screen widgets
Affirmations on your home screen that update every hour. Small or medium size. Tap to breathe immediately.
Radically minimal design
No gamification. No streaks. No guilt if you skip a day. Just a calm tool that gets out of your way when you need it and disappears when you don't.
Privacy matters
Shuu does not track you. Your data stays on your device or in Apple Health. No accounts, no servers, no analytics collecting what you do. We genuinely don't know how you use this app, and we prefer it that way.
It's free
Shuu is free to use, period. Every feature, no paywall. If it helps you and you want to leave a tip, you can. Three amounts: a nod, a handshake, or a warm hug. It's optional, always.
If your mind feels loud, take a minute. Shuu helps you find it.
Fixed a couple of issues with the Home Screen Widget. Yes, we have one! Try it out if you haven't already. It brings fresh affirmations to your home screen every hour
