Simple Breath
· v1.7.0
About
Simple Breath guides slow, regular breathing directly on your Garmin watch. A softly glowing circle expands while you inhale and contracts while you exhale, with a clear brightness change at every phase transition.
Choose separate inhale and exhale durations, an unlimited or timed session, your preferred circle color, and optional vibration or beep cues. Distinct vibration patterns let you recognize inhalation and exhalation without looking at the display.
During each exercise, the app shows the current phase, the time remaining in that phase, and total session time. A timed session stops automatically and provides a completion cue. Whenever a session ends, you explicitly choose whether to save or discard it.
Sessions are saved as standard Garmin FIT activities with duration and available heart-rate data, ready to sync with Garmin Connect. The app supports English and Italian and does not require location or network access.
The idea for Simple Breath came while reading James Nestor's book "Breath".
