Respiroguide Pro for Android
Keeps crashing when check settings
It's quite a pretty app, and the colours are appealing, as is the gentle wave movement of the circle you're meant to follow with your breath. Unfortunately, it doesn't work very well. It tells you that it's better to exhale for longer than you inhale, and then gives you the option to do only the opposite, to increase how long you inhale for with respect to how long you exhale for! And then that doesn't even work! You end up trying to work out how to fit a pattern of exhaling for longer and pausing after each in-breath and out-breath to the moving circle, which doesn't allow for holds either. Plus it crashes every time I used it. I'm now using Peaceful Breathing Lite, which does a much better job. I've emailed the developer to inform them of the problems.
Most resp guides are way too complicated. This one's just what I needed and nothing I didn't. Absolutely perfect.
Doesn't try to do too much and succeeds in giving a good visual for slowing breathing. Runs glitch-free on my Android. However, I would like to see more range in speeds to choose from because I want to start at the higher rates and work my way down. Recommended.
Great app. It's just what I was looking for. Works like a charm. Looking forward to many hours of breath training & relaxation.
I used this and found it to be good for the price. However after having to reset my phone it will not reinstall again. Running Android 2.2
Great breathing pacer
