About HRVibe — Breathe & HRV
HRVibe is a guided breathing app with real-time HRV biofeedback from your Apple Watch. Heart Rate Variability (HRV) measures autonomic nervous system flexibility. By breathing at a rhythm synchronised with the baroreflex (~0.1 Hz), you increase cardiac coherence and activate the parasympathetic nervous system. A higher vagal tone is linked to better stress management, faster recovery and emotional well-being. HRVibe helps you train it session after session. KEY FEATURES • Guided breathing with visual animation and audio • 7 science-based breathing patterns (Box, 4-7-8, Cardiac Coherence & more) • Real-time HRV biofeedback from Apple Watch • Stereo binaural beats (Alpha, Theta, Gamma) — headphones required • Ambient sound tracks for focus and relaxation • Session history with charts and weekly trends • Cardiac coherence score for each session • Sessions saved to Apple Health as Mindful Minutes • Customisable daily reminder • Streak tracking and motivational badges FREE TO START — HRVibe Pro unlocks full session history, extended trends, premium atmospheres and more. REQUIRES Apple Watch for HRV biofeedback. The app also works without Watch for guided breathing and audio. HRVibe began as a way to help someone very close to me find calm during moments of severe anxiety. What started as a personal project became an app built to make that same tool available to anyone who needs it. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
