PacedBreath for iPhone
A clear guide for the breath.
A quieter space around it.
01 / The everyday journey
Open the app to one useful suggestion. Adjust the length if you like, then follow the form. Every screen belongs to the same quiet world.
Follow the form, or close your eyes. Haptics and an optional voice carry the same rhythm, so the pace stays in your hand.
No account, no feed, no ads, no analytics. Sessions and reflections stay on your iPhone.
Gentle, no-hold practices come first. Breath holds and activating breathing stay off until you choose them.
02 / The centerpiece
The form grows as you breathe in, softens as you breathe out, and stays still through rests and holds. Its timing comes from the practice itself, with no decorative extra beats.
This is Calm Reset, one of the four free foundations: four seconds in, six out, and a moment to rest.
A looping Calm Reset demonstration: breathe in for four seconds, out for six seconds, then rest for one second.
03 / Twelve practices, six moments
Four everyday foundations are free for good. Complete adds deeper techniques. Practices with breath holds or activating breathing wait until you turn them on in Safety.
A longer exhale for the moments in between.
An even pace to return to each day.
An unhurried rhythm for the evening.
A clear switch back to the task.
Techniques to learn at your own pace.
Stimulating, not calming. Off until you choose it.
Every practice explains its rhythm, when to use it, and its limits before you begin. Breath-hold and activating practices unlock only after you include them in Safety. See the sources behind those limits.
04 / The full practice
Browse by intention, keep a private record of the time you make with no streaks or scores, and finish with a moment to notice how you feel.
05 / Built in
Start Calm Reset from a widget. A Live Activity keeps the session’s state on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, and the pace waits for you whenever you leave the app.
Four voice guides, five ambient beds, and haptics you can follow with your eyes closed. Every cue is optional.
Completed sessions can be saved as mindful minutes. PacedBreath writes with your permission and never reads your Health data.
Name the moment you want to remember, and a gentle local reminder uses your words. Nothing leaves the device.
Dynamic Type, VoiceOver, Reduce Motion, Increase Contrast, and a separate night palette are full design states.
06 / Pricing
Start with the everyday foundations, free for good. When you want to go deeper, PacedBreath Complete is one purchase that never renews.

Sources & safety
PacedBreath is general-wellness software. It does not diagnose or treat anything. The app starts gently, keeps advanced practices opt-in, and shows the source behind each safety choice.
No-hold sessions are ready first. Breath holds and activating fast breathing need an explicit choice.
Every citation says what it supports and what it does not establish, including narrow study populations.
Citations appear on first run, in Settings, and beside the relevant practice before a session begins.
