StillPulse: Breathing

Make a few focused minutes for your breath.

StillPulse is a guided breathing app for Android with a Wear OS companion. It combines clear visual cues, responsive procedural sound and a private history of your practice. Start locally without an account, choose a rhythm and follow each inhale, hold and exhale.

Guided breathing that stays clear

• Follow an organic visual guide through every breathing phase
• Practice Box Breathing, coherent breathing, extended exhale and 4-7-8 breathing
• Choose sessions from 5 to 30 minutes with Premium
• Use calm, focus, unwind and wind-down contexts
• Let procedural sound move with the current breathing phase
• Choose Classic, Evolving, Noise or fully procedural Nature soundscapes

Build a consistent practice

• Review completed sessions and private progress summaries
• Follow multi-day breathing programs
• Set local reminders for your practice
• Use Wind-down when you want a quieter evening routine
• Export selected history locally to PDF or CSV with Premium

Optional heart-rate biofeedback

With Premium, StillPulse can use fresh heart-rate samples as context for wellness biofeedback and descriptive session summaries. Choose the source that works with your device:

• Direct from StillPulse on a compatible Wear OS 3+ watch
• Through Android Health Connect when a compatible watch or app shares heart-rate data there
• Without heart rate, with the breathing session and neutral guidance still available

For a direct Wear OS session, prepare the exercise on your paired Android phone, open StillPulse on the watch and press Start. The watch reads heart rate only during the session you explicitly start and sends samples to the phone. If the connection is interrupted, the breathing exercise continues and recent samples can be delivered after reconnection.

Health Connect is an optional alternative source and access is read-only. StillPulse does not write data to Health Connect or request its installation during a session. Data supplied through Health Connect can be delayed or incomplete.

You can run a compatibility check before subscribing to see whether direct Wear OS or Health Connect data is available. One working source is enough, and neither source is required for ordinary breathing sessions.

StillPulse uses heart rate, not HRV or beat-to-beat measurements. Heart-rate information is not a clinical measurement and should not be used for medical monitoring.

Local-first by default

Core breathing practice works without an account. Session history stays on your device unless you sign in and explicitly enable optional cloud history sync. Without that choice, no practice data is uploaded.
