nevada - breathe

Nevada turns your screen into a breathing companion. Choose from six scientifically-backed techniques like Box Breathing, 4-7-8, and Physiological Sigh, each paired with a mesmerizing animation that moves in rhythm with your breath.
No accounts. No subscriptions. No guilt. Just open the app, pick a pattern, and breathe.
WHAT'S INSIDE
Six breathing exercises, each grounded in research:
· Box Breathing for calm, steady focus
· 4-7-8 to quiet the nervous system before sleep
· Resonant Breathing to sync your heart and lungs
· Physiological Sigh for fast stress relief
· Extended Exhale to activate deep relaxation
· Mindful Breathing for everyday awareness
Create up to three custom exercises with full control over inhale, hold, and exhale durations.
Four living animations that breathe with you:
· Morphing Blob, an organic shape that expands and contracts
· Particle Sphere, a cloud of particles that assembles as you inhale
· Dot Ripple, concentric rings that pulse outward with each breath
· Breathing Sphere, a rotating sphere that expands and contracts with your breath
Eight color palettes, four solid tones and four gradients, designed for low-light and late-night use. Full dark mode support. Reduced motion alternatives for every animation. Optional gentle sound cues on phase changes. Four haptic styles to guide your breathing with your eyes closed.
Breathe by cycles or set a timer from 1 to 20 minutes. After each session, a gentle check-in helps you notice how you feel. Your session history and mood are saved in a calendar view so you can look back and see how your practice has grown, on your own terms.
Add Nevada to your home screen with a widget and start breathing in one tap.
Nevada also runs on Apple Watch. Pick an exercise, lower your wrist, and follow the haptic rhythm. Directional taps guide you through each phase: up for inhale, down for exhale. Sessions sync back to your iPhone automatically.
Nevada is intentionally minimal. There are no subscriptions, no social features, no notifications asking you to come back. The app exists to hold space for one thing: your next breath.
