About PillowTap

Your mind is racing. You can't sleep. What if your phone could help — without a single sound or beam of light? Pillow Tap uses your iPhone's haptic engine to guide your breathing as you fall asleep. Place your phone under your pillow, start a session, and feel the rhythm: one tap means breathe in, two taps mean breathe out. That's it. Controlled breathing activates your parasympathetic nervous system — slowing your heart rate, lowering your blood pressure, and telling your brain it's safe to rest. Pillow Tap makes it effortless by giving you a rhythm to follow without needing to watch a screen or listen to audio. THREE BREATHING PATTERNS 4-7-8 Relaxing — Inhale 4s, hold 7s, exhale 8s. Developed by Dr. Andrew Weil specifically for sleep. Box Breathing — Inhale 4s, hold 4s, exhale 4s, rest 4s. Used by Navy SEALs to calm the mind under pressure. Simple Relaxation — Inhale 4s, exhale 6s. No hold, no complexity. Just breathe. DESIGNED FOR BEDTIME No sound needed — works entirely through vibration Screen dims to minimum brightness automatically Pure black display for zero light under your pillow Adjustable haptic strength (Light, Medium, Strong) 15-minute sessions that stop on their own Double-tap to stop early YOUR PRIVACY MATTERS Pillow Tap collects zero data.
