  1. Sit somewhere you can pause safely. Let your breathing settle before starting.
  2. Choose a comfortable preset or shorten the phases. Leave out holds if they feel strained.
  3. Start a short session. Use haptics for quiet guidance, or turn on a transition voice.

A pause between the things you need to do

A full routine can be hard to fit between messages, meetings and errands. Choose a session duration you have room for, then let the app mark the changes between inhale and exhale. You can keep your phone nearby or start from a compatible Wear OS watch.

Choose how much guidance you want

Watch haptics let you follow the breathing phases without checking a screen. A transition voice can help when you are learning the pattern; visual guidance shows where you are in the cycle. Try one cue at a time and keep the ones you find useful.

Keep the pace comfortable

The aim is a breathing break you can repeat. You do not need to make every breath deeper or finish a long hold. BreathFriend lets you adjust phase lengths and stop a session. If a rhythm feels uncomfortable, return to your usual breathing.

Before you start

Which session should I choose?

Start with a comfortable pattern from the breathing presets or the calming guided-session category. The session name describes its intended use, not a guaranteed result.

Can I use this at my desk?

Yes. A compatible Wear OS watch can guide a session with haptics. Choose a place where you can pause safely; do not practise while driving.

Does BreathFriend treat anxiety?

BreathFriend is a wellness breathing app. It does not diagnose or treat anxiety or other medical conditions.
