Nothing to learn. Watch the shape, follow the breath.

A living blob

It swells as you inhale, softens as you exhale. Your eyes do the counting, so your mind doesn't have to.

Color that shifts

Each phase has its own hue. You can feel the rhythm even with half-closed eyes.

Sound, buzz or silence

A soft tone or a gentle tap at every transition, or nothing at all. Screen stays awake while you breathe.

Three patterns. Or make your own.

Pick a preset, or set inhale, hold, exhale and hold yourself, one tap per second. A session is 5 minutes free, or up to 60 with Plus.

  • Calm
    Slow exhale for winding down
  • Box
    Equal sides for steady focus
  • 4-7-8
    Long hold for falling asleep

Questions about breathing, answered.

What is paced breathing?+

Inhaling, holding and exhaling for set counts: for example 4-2-6-3 seconds. Slowing to about six breaths per minute nudges the nervous system toward rest and helps you feel calmer within a minute or two.

Is Tinybreath free?+

Breathing is free, forever: the three presets and the 5 minute session. No subscription, no ads, no account. Tinybreath Plus is an optional one-time unlock that adds longer sessions, ten more patterns, history, Apple Health and widgets. It only ever adds.

Which breathing techniques are included?+

Calm (4-2-6-3), Box breathing (4-4-4-4) and 4-7-8 breathing for sleep. Or set your own inhale, hold and exhale counts.

How long should a session be?+

5 minutes, and that is a whole session. Plus adds 10 minutes and any length from 1 to 60, so you can settle into something longer when you have the time.

Does it work offline?+

Yes. Everything runs on your iPhone. No connection, no sign-up, no data collected.

Free to breathe. Plus if you want more.
