Braele, a breathing timer that asks you to put the phone down
Braele guides breathing patterns through a living orb, voice prompts, haptics, and an offline iPhone app, with a browser timer available without a download.
Field notes
Braele uses a timed breathing orb that expands, holds, and contracts rather than playing a passive looping animation. Its app-specific workflow is designed to continue after the phone is locked and turned face down, using haptics, voice, and the Lock Screen or Dynamic Island to preserve the count. The page lists six patterns, Apple Health session saving, and a free box-breathing tier, while custom patterns are attributed to Braele Pro.
