A few minutes, at your own pace.
Breathe for Five. is being built for a simple breathing break. Start with five minutes, adjust the timing to suit you, and choose the guidance you want to follow.
ALL FEATURES ARE FREE. Use the app without an account. The free version will include only occasional, dismissible ads for other apps by the same developer. An optional subscription removes all ads and automatic signup reminders. No subscription is needed for app functionality.
What it does
Start with five minutes
Open a short session with minimal setup, or choose a different length. Five minutes is a starting point, not a limit.
Make the pace yours
Choose from a small original exercise library or adjust inhale and exhale timing. Optional holds can be left out. Save a preferred pattern and change it whenever you like.
Follow the cues you prefer
Use readable visual guidance, bundled audio cues or haptics on supported devices. Reduced-motion guidance and alternatives that don't rely on color alone are included in the plan.
Keep your practice simple
Pause or stop whenever you choose. Keep a private on-device history of completed sessions, with an optional consistency view that never pushes you to hold your breath longer.
Begin offline
Bundled exercises and cues are planned to work from first launch without an account or internet connection. Sessions don't use a cloud AI model.
Privacy in plain words
Sessions, saved patterns and practice history are planned to be stored on your iPhone and work without a connection. Read the full privacy policy.
Availability
Breathe for Five. is in development for iPhone and is not on the App Store yet. This page will link to the App Store only once the app is published.
Questions
Can I download Breathe for Five. now?
Not yet. Breathe for Five. is in development for iPhone. This page describes what is planned; download details will appear here once the app is actually released.
Do sessions have to last five minutes?
No. Five minutes is the planned default. Shorter and longer sessions are part of the design.
Will I need to pay for anything?
No. ALL FEATURES ARE FREE. An optional supporter subscription ($0.99/week, $1.99/month or $19.99/year in the US) will remove ads and automatic signup reminders only. Final prices will follow the App Store listing and may vary by region.
Will I need to watch the screen?
Audio cues are planned to support eyes-closed guidance. Audio with the screen locked still needs testing on real devices, so we are not promising it yet.
Will it use Apple Health or Apple Watch?
Optional mindful-minute recording and an Apple Watch companion are possible later additions. They are not needed for the iPhone app, and no heart-rate or breathing measurement is claimed.
