App
The app is hard to use and frustrating if you miss a training session. It will not pick up where you left off sometimes and want you to start over.
United StatesHate the App, love the tool
I hate that I cannot just do the breathing exercise according to my schedule and that I’m forced to watch the video when I’ve been using this for well over a year. There should be an option for me to do the exercise when I choose and if I don’t want a rest day then that’s my choice.
United StatesDon’t bother
It logged me out and lost my progress. Deleted it.
United StatesBetter options
I rarely review apps, but this one is bad. It fails at its most basic function - providing a breathing timer. I had to pick a training plan, but of course the day the plan is started is an ‘off’ day so I can’t do the standard exercises (changing the default day off in settings and then changing plans does not avoid this). I figured there are better options out there - would recommend checking out iBreathe. It has customizable intervals and a watch app
United StatesHow about investing a little in your app
The app is poorly designed and essentially useless The older version was easier to navigate through, get rid of all the pathetic videos and focus on layout
United StatesNeeds development
I think this technology is really neat but has not been fully realized either by the device or the app. After I used a different device, the Lumen, which measures CO2 to measure metabolism, I was curious about breathing biofeedback devices. The Lumen device requires you to breath with a certain amount of force and for a certain amount of time in order to work, and has a visual display on the app that shows if you are succeeding. That’s what I was hoping for with the Breather, but the Breather is only mechanical and does not have the sensor capabilities to provide biofeedback. As for the app itself, I find it does not give the information or guidance in formats I want. Videos do not work well for me for many reasons, and I’ve found the information to be limited. Without real-time biofeedback from the device, questions remain about the correct technique, theory and practice. I think this technology is incredibly cool but this iteration falls short of where I hope to eventually see this evolve.
United StatesVoice? Really?
I am troubled that the support team doesn’t seem to understand even a little bit about how singers breathe to sing. They also seem to have odd notions about the power required to inhale and exhale as a singer and/or through the device. I recommend more for general respiratory issues than for the voice. Straws work just fine.
