Circadia
· v1.6
About
Circadia is a sleep aid for your wrist: quiet, rhythmic vibration patterns
that guide your breathing or heart rate down as you drift off, with your
heart rate tracked live throughout.
Five session types, one goal
- Classic Pulse — a steady metronome vibration at a fixed BPM, or a slow
ramp from a higher to a lower BPM over time.
- Resonance Breathing — paced 4s inhale / 6s exhale cycles at the classic
0.1 Hz resonance-breathing rate, with distinct taps marking each phase.
- 4:8 Extended Exhale — a longer 4s inhale / 8s exhale pattern, the
extended-exhale ratio used to encourage relaxation.
- Adaptive Pulse — closed-loop: reads your live heart rate and gently
paces the vibration just below it, smoothing out sensor noise as it goes.
- Box Breathing — even 4-4-4-4 second inhale/hold/exhale/hold cycles.
Live heart rate, always in view
Your current heart rate sits front and center during a session, with a
running delta since the session started — so you can actually see yourself
settling down, not just guess.
Stop conditions that make sense for sleep
Set a maximum session duration, a heart-rate threshold to stop at
automatically, or both. A live summary on the idle screen shows exactly
what's configured before you even start.
Everything on the watch, nothing on the phone
All settings — session type, BPM/ramp, stop conditions, vibration
strength, and an option to disable touch input entirely during a session
(so a stray touch in your sleep can't cut it short) — are reachable
directly from the watch by holding the Up button. No app pairing or phone
required.
Your session history
The last 20 sessions are saved on-device: date, duration, protocol, start/
end/min/max heart rate, and how the session ended — browsable any time from
the settings menu.
