What’s new
Version 1.2 · Updated June 2, 2026
Clear your airways with confidence. A brand-new Airway Clearance section guides you through the Active Cycle of Breathing (ACBT) — the technique respiratory physiotherapists teach to help shift phlegm from the lungs. Step-by-step screens walk you through breathing control, deep breathing, and gentle huffs at your own pace. Built-in safety guide included. A calmer, simpler exercise library. - Diaphragmatic Breathing (formerly Belly Breathing) has a cleaner inhale → exhale → rest rhythm. - Gentle Box Breathing has been retired to keep the lineup focused. - Custom Exercise on iPhone and Apple Watch now fully supports breath holds — set inhale, hold, exhale, rest, and rounds exactly how you like them. Less notification fatigue. - New Notifications on/off switch in Settings — pause every reminder with one tap, no trip to iOS Settings. - Recommended Reminders now suggests a gentler 3 times a day (8 am, 1 pm, 6 pm) instead of 5. - Reminders are now shown in time order with a clearer enable/disable toggle and a handy "Send Test Notification" button. Fresh first impression. New launch screen: BreathWorx — Breathe Better. Quality of life fixes. - Apple Health sync working again on devices where it had stopped. - Backup & Restore opens reliably with clearer error messages. - Apple Watch: fixed a layout glitch on the daily progress card; the Custom Exercise editor is now tidier. Thanks for breathing with us.
