I find the app is excellent at insuring that regular breathing is so important, and that blood pressure is lowered
after use.
Some bad moments
worked very well in ios 7 but does not work anymore with ios 8.02 and with ios 8.1
I regret purchasing this app and wish i could get a refund. The “breath pattern” is not a consistent rhythm (e.g., breathing in and out for the same duration). There is supposed to be a “customize breath” option but there seems to be no way to input what you want the parameters for the breath to be. It’s a waste of money in its current form.
Im very impressed with this breakthrough app. First of all, I am familiar with breathing exercises (Ive used the Pramayama app, and different offline techniques in the past). The amount of vitality gained from just breathing intentionally is truly remarkable, and seems to me a "secret" to health that shockingly few people in the healthcare profession talk about. So without a doubt, anyone interested in health should be doing conscious breathing exercises. However I was never aware of the connection between breath and heart rate. And this remarkable tool comes along and not only teaches me about the connection, but also monitors and maps the relationship in real time. This turns my iPhone into a medical device, for under $4. Significant value; it seems like something that us interested would pay much more to buy. I was skeptical such a system would work - but this does work, and smoothly. Seeing the connection is psychologically rewarding, a form of biofeedback that makes me more motivated to persist in the exercises. Im planning to make this a part of my breathing exercise routines, and applaud the scientists and developers behind this new iPhone-based medical device.
What a great app! This is every bit as good as a device that I paid $200 for. However, not only is it significantly less expensive, its every bit as accurate (honestly I was skeptical, but verified against an oximeter), and its too convenient not to use anytime Ive got a few minutes. If you dont already know the benefits of heart coherence breathing techniques & training, I highly recommend doing some reading on the subject. Then I challenge you to find a better, more convenient means of doing it.
I use this often for stress. It works as well as some of the high priced technology. Highly recommend.
Im telling everyone about this app. Regular pocket biofeedback devices are pricey, plus you need to carry an additional device. This app, however allow you the same convenience for an affordable price. My daughter was advised to do biofeedback to help combat her migraines. The portabliity of this app allows her to integrate it into her busy lifestyle. My one suggestion would be to add relaxing background music options. But I simply play some before I open the app. Extremely useful app!
