Breathwrk
An app that guides your breathing with sound, visuals and haptics.
What Breathwrk does
Breathwrk is a guided breathing app, now owned by Peloton. It has breathing exercises and short classes for calming down, winding down at night, focus and energy, with sound, visuals and phone vibrations to follow. It's on iPhone and Android.
Breathwrk turns breathing exercises into something you can follow without thinking. Pick an exercise, and sound, animation and haptic taps tell you when to breathe in, hold and breathe out.
There are short guided classes, daily content, habits with reminders, streaks and a breath test you can repeat over time. It also logs to Apple Health and works offline.
The free version covers the 7-day challenges and some exercises. Pro adds the rest. Its iPhone rating is high, while the Android rating is much lower, so Android owners may want to try the free version first.
A good way to start: pick one short calming exercise and one wind-down exercise for bedtime, set reminders for both, and do them for a week. Habits and streaks help it stick without much effort.
