Breathwrk: Breathing Exercises

the app can be buggy, streak is inaccurate, what is the breathscore? the breathing exercises work but when i pay $70 a year i do expect the app and all its features to work

If I could give no stars I would. The update has removed so many of the daily breath wrk exercises I use. - I can no longer schedule no breath work for the times that suits me. Because it won’t let me. It gives me a short list of breathing exercises. - It’s completely reset 3 years with of breathing exercises, my streak, my minutes, my everyday use and my daily reminders. - It’s no longer connecting to the apple health app, so any mindfulness minutes aren’t logged. - If I choose an exercise to do. Even if I chose 20 minutes, it bugs out. Crashes and stops at 5 minutes. Which is really stressful. - It’s removed exercises I used regularly. - It’s removed my ability to increase my daily breath work. It’s capped at 20 minutes. I use two in the morning and I have been getting closer to 30 minutes a day. Having to go back in and set another timer is infuriating. - that being said, it won’t even save the Breathwrk that I am wanting to do. I pick it, save the minutes and it ends in 4-5 minutes. It’s not relaxing! - $15 a month. A month!! That’s $180 a year. I get it. They have to make a profit. But that’s ludicrous considering they’ve literally ripped the rug right under my daily use and it is incredibly buggy now, just leading to more stress. This was a great app 3 years ago. But as of November 2024. It is not.

This app used to be fantastic, but since the new update with its revamped UI came along I feel it is much less intuitive than before, I liked to have easily access to the breathing instructions, now it’s hard to find - also, would have loved an easier way to search for 4 7 8 breathing, or even Infinite (figure 8) breathing. You have to search a lot through the labelled session like “Relax” “Focus” etc etc before being able to finding it. Now with the new UI it’s even worst because the breathing details are not even there. I have deleted the app for now, and using other good alternatives.

Keeps freezing after the update was freezing before the update

I find myself having to restart the app quite regularly as it caches out/cliches! Love the interface.

In the last week the app has started to freeze up at the end of the session and as i have to close the app down it doesn't record my progress. No amount of breath work will make this any less frustrating

The latest update is very non-intuitive. There is no way to set up a schedule like there was earlier. Customisation options are extremely limited. It’s quite buggy as well. For instance I tried to click on the option that allows for the visual indication of nasal or mouth breathing, but it simply didn’t work. I’m a paid subscriber. Please fix these issues asap.

I used to be a massive fan of this app and have introduced at least a dozen other people to it. However the latest update in my opinion has completely changed to user experience and removed so many things that made this app great. Had to delete it in the end as I ended up frustrated everytime I tried to use it

I’ve been using the win hof app for about 2 years now, and I’ve always found it too strong, I had to tone down the number of breathes just to get through a session. I find this app great because the “energize” session is very similar to the win hof app but less intense which makes it easier for me to do. And I get better results. Also, I am doing the wind down, sleep and calm sessions which bring me back to grounded feeling and allows me to get on with whatever I am doing whether it’s trying to go to sleep, or focus on work. Great app, loving it so far 👌
